This camp will be part of their pre-season preparations ahead of a busy 2022.
They will jet out on Sunday and with two training sessions, a day lined ahead of them, with net and outfield practice most days, and range-hitting and gym work at various stages.
Gary was Speaking from his home on Thursday terming it as a great opportunity to get out on the grass.
“It’s just a great opportunity to get out on the grass and what we’ve heard is a great facility – there are two nets and a center-wicket that we’ll be utilizing for four days next week, and we’re thoroughly looking forward to that. To get the guys back outdoors after 3 or 4 weeks purely indoors will help them hit the ground running when we get back to Ireland and start the season.”
“We’ll wait and see what the surfaces are like when we get out there to know how we want to approach training – there might be some spin-friendly surfaces there, which will allow us to work on our spin game. But we will be going out there looking to develop all aspects of our batters’ game – it’s just an excellent opportunity to get out on grass ahead of the season.
He added that the camp will only be for contracted players.
“Whilst the camp is primarily for our contracted players, we have added Ross Adair, as unfortunately he missed out on the Wolves tour to Namibia with Covid-19, but has now recovered.”
The 12-player squad players include;
Mark Adair, Ross Adair, Andrew Balbirnie, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Andy McBrine, Barry McCarthy, William Porterfield, Simi Singh, Paul Stirling, Harry Tector, and Lorcan Tucker.
Coaching and support staff: Gary Wilson, Simon Johnston, Darren Nicol
