Sidearm Elite Cricket Ball Thrower

I purchased one sidearm thrower which snapped after 5 minutes use. I most likely received a defective one. I was refunded and then bought another and so far I haven't had any issues with this new one. It's really good practice and also comes out very fast if done correctly. The throwing did not take long to get used to. However, not everyone may find it easy to use. Using the sidearm to bowl spin or slower balls is very difficult and I think doing this is what might cause it to snap sooner than it should. Overall it's very good

Very useful addition to my sons kit bag. Used the normal way the ball really does come out fast, but is quite difficult to pitch the ball on a good length. I've only used it for about an hour so maybe I just need more practice. When used in reverse however it delivers the ball at the perfect speed for my son and it's also easier to find the right length. It had definitely made batting sessions more productive for my son as I was unable to deliver the ball consistently at a decent speed. Very happy so far.

Well packed and delivered quickly. A very good product.

Works great. Maybe I'm weak but I don't think I'm getting to top speeds advertised. Getting it quick enough to be a good buy though

not a great product. Broke after a year or so. Now unusable.

I bought this to facilitate productive net sessions with my brother. I would caution anybody using this not to use a new ball and to practice your "action" without a batsman. Our unfamiliarity with it and the swing of a new ball almost led to a decapitation. That aside and when used to it, it was fantastic. We were able to consistently bowl challenging playable balls for over two hours without fatigue. Allows for easy repetition of the same delivery which meant we both came away feeling we had developed areas of our game. The pace is fast but you soon get used to it and can pick it up after playing yourself in.

Arrived Promptly, surprisingly well build and seems very durable/sturdy materials. As stated it is easy to use and fast speeds are achievable. My only criticism is that they changed the colour to allow for white balls however pink training balls are also very common.
