About 100 children with dreams of becoming prominent cricket players took some professional cricketing advice from the SBS Bank Otago Volts cricket squad yesterday during the Junior Volts Fun Day at the University Oval.

The Otago Volts squad was on hand to run them through a number of fun batting, bowling and fielding skills, while they got the autographs of their favourite players. Craig Baxter took along his camera.
