The Rise of Cricket in Ireland

Le cricket est en phase de devenir un sport très prisé des jeunes en Irlande. Les joueurs prennent ce sport au sérieux et se montrent très efficaces lors de compétitions. Le Rush Cricket Club, ici à l’honneur, rassemble de grands noms du cricket et forme les plus jeunes du mieux possible.

TranscriptRTÉ reporter, Nick Sheridan: Winning an All-Ireland final in cricket is quite an achievement, but to win two in one year is something very special. Well, that’s exactly what Rush Cricket Club have managed to achieve. They finished off this year’s season with an under 11 and an under 13 title. I’ve come to a training session here in the club in North County Dublin to check out the work that goes into such an achievement and I’m bowled over.

Rush Cricket Club, Under 11 coach, Sean McGann: Catching with both hands, catching with right hand, left hand and throwing it in different various ways and then throwing the ball on the ground and catching it, stopping it with two hands.

Nick Sheridan: And then we had the tunnel exercise, then, tell us about that.

Sean McGann: The tunnel exercise, this is a bowling drill that we would use and it’s a drill to have the boys bowl in the right areas, so they don’t bowl, that they learn to bowl in the right areas and the ball goes straight so they’re not, and as we would call it, the two sides of the wicket.

Nick Sheridan: The skills that are on show today can come in handy not just while playing cricket but in everyday life too.

Nick Sheridan: So what did it feel like to lift the cup?

Under 13 Cricket player, “Pebbles”: Different feeling than I’ve ever had before. I’ve never won anything like that.

Under 11 Cricket player, Cian: Couldn’t explain my words for it. It felt really good.

Nick Sheridan: Did it?

Cian: Yeah.

Nick Sheridan: Some of the biggest names in cricket have learned their skills here in Rush. So Rush Cricket Club is certainly one club that’s steeped in history and now thanks to these guys behind me, it’s making history too.
