One of the most important things a father can do is spend time with his son. It's a bonding experience that really allows us and our children to grow as people. Toyota understands that the bond between a father and a son is a special one and to that end they are sponsoring a Father & Son’s cricket coaching day. Cricket legend Shaun Pollock will be the host, so this is truly something to look forward to. Although Shaun has recently retired, I doubt his amazing bowling and batting skills have.

The event is happening in Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town. There is a little bit of bad news for our friends in Johannesburg. There has been such a great demand that the Johannesburg event is fully booked already. I highly recommend that you start registering now for the Cape Town (Sahara Park Newlands on the 7th of September) and Durban (Sahara Oval Kingsmead on the 14th of September) events. Email fathersandsons@draftfcb.co.za for registration details or visit the Toyota Father & Sons Cricket Coaching Day Web Site. A ticket will cost you R80 (including lunch) which is great value for money.

Keep in mind that everyone is invited, so bring the whole family. This is going to be the ultimate family outing, so don't miss it!
