On 18th January 2026, a focused Player Education Program was conducted for the Under-15 District Squad in Jaffna at Central College, Jaffna. The session centered on the vital topic of Fielding Awareness, highlighting the importance of sharp thinking, anticipation, and discipline in modern cricket.

The program emphasized that fielding is not merely about stopping the ball, but about reading the game, understanding match situations, and supporting the team through smart positioning and quick decision-making. Players were guided on improving reaction time, communication between fielders, and maintaining intensity throughout every over.

Special attention was given to building a proactive mindset in the field — encouraging young cricketers to anticipate plays, back up throws, and stay alert even when the ball is not directly in their zone. Through practical examples and interactive discussions, the players gained a clearer understanding of how strong fielding can shift momentum and create match-winning opportunities.

The session concluded with key takeaways reinforcing discipline, teamwork, and awareness as core pillars of effective fielding. The program successfully enhanced the tactical understanding of the Jaffna Under-15 squad, preparing them to perform with greater confidence and responsibility on the field.
