Legendary Australia batsman Doug Walters scored 5,357 Test runs at an average of 48.26, while also taking 49 test wickets. He was the first batsman to score a double century and a century in the same Test match.
"Doug and I have run these Highlands clinics on many occasions now and they're always popular," Barry Knight said.
"Everything is tailor-made with things being heavily skills-based, but we also make sure the days are a lot of fun.
"We're always looking to develop the techniques of young players, but in a way that's enjoyable for everyone."
Doug Walters added "We share everything around so everyone gets a good go batting, bowling and fielding. We split activities between the nets and out on the field so the experiences are maximised.
"It's a great chance for us to run our eyes over many budding cricketers."
Knight and Walters will be supported by senior Highlands cricketing and coaching identity
Brian Martin, head of coaching at Bowral Blues Cricket Club.
The clinic caters for juniors aged 7-14 and will be held at Bowral Blues Cricket Club home ground (Centennial Park, Bowral) on 21, 22 and 23 January.
The sessions start at 10.00am and finish at 2.00pm each day.
The cost per student is $225.
