This is an essential book for anyone involved, or thinking of being involved
with disabled cricketers. It is also a very good book - clearly
laid out, well thought-out and enjoyable to read. The authors, well known
in all cricketing circles, have not made the mistake of treating their
subject as if it is has some incurable disease and the result is a fine
piece of publishing. “We hope the book will inspire more and more
people to work with more and more disabled people in this country and
abroad.” The words of Pat Roberts, Secretary of the Cricket Federation
for People with Disabilities. Copies are available. Roger Chow

'The coaching techniques in the following book apply to all cricketers
in the game and gives an insight into mixed disability cricket for coaches
wishing to work with our cricketers.
It has been produced to offer all cricketers with disabilities the opportunity
to develop to excellence.
Whilst we will supply the book to mixed disability groups at an agreed
fee, we are offering to send a copy to any one as a thankyou for a donation
towards the work of the CFPD of at least £25 we do need your support.
The book is an ideal gift or present'
'Fortunately, great
figures like David Gower - who would not, I suspect, be the first to provide
the nation with a précis of Modern Psychology - prefer other priorities,
like acting like president of the Cricket Federation for People with Disabilities.
The Wildgooses' coaching book is a treasure. Its contents are sufficiently
attractive and sensible that any student of the game, whether able or
disabled, should read it carefully. It’s an admirable enthusiastic
coach and a great role model for coaches. Guess what? Enthusiasm is the
first requirement in Bob Woolmer's view also.'
