Summer is upon us, and with Icelandic Volcanoes and British Airways strikes conspiring to keep us at home this year, why not give the kids a new way of enjoying themselves in the comfort of their own gardens, or in the local park.

Crazy Catch, as featured on BBC News Saturday morning sports slot with Mike Bushell,  is a revolutionary new double-sided rebound net reaction trainer used in schools, sports clubs and by top sports professionals all over the world. Distributed in the UK by Flicx leading distributor of high quality portable synthetic cricket pitches and coaching equipment, it is the perfect toy for children of all ages.

Not only do children have lots of fun, playing with Crazy Catch, but they keep fit and improve their hand-eye coordination. The Crazy Catch can be set at different heights and whilst one side provides a predictable rebound, there is also an ‘insane side’ that produces an unpredictable ball return.

“I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want one,” says mum Johanna Dodds, whose children aged 8-15 all use Crazy Catch in their garden, and on the local common, “you can make your own games up, take it down the park with friends or even use it as a ten minute break in between revising.”

Air fares and hotel prices always sky-rocket in the school holidays, and with six weeks of sunshine on the way, Crazy Catch is the ideal healthy alternative to a sofa summer of TV, crisps and playststaions. Whether playing on their own, with friends or family, children can have a good work out, lots of fun and get some rays. They can improve their hand-eye coordination skills too, good practice for their favourite sport and keeps their hand in for next term’s PE lessons.

Crazy Catch now comes in all shapes and sizes. The Crazy Catch Original has a large target area and heavy duty design making it ideal for group use - whereas the smaller Crazy Catch Wild Child or Upstart are ideal sizes for indoor or outdoor use in smaller areas. It’s usable with balls of all shapes and sizes.

“It’s a no brainer, my youngest was hopeless at catching but now is so much better” says Johanna Dodds, “it’s so good the local school asked to borrow ours.”

And it’s not just schools that use Crazy Catch. Sir Clive Woodward’s England rugby team in 2003, the South African world champions in 2007 and some of the top international and domestic cricket teams use it to improve fitness and catching skills.

Members of the British Olympic team use Crazy Catch to improve hand eye coordination and even the Red Bull Formula 1 team have incorporated it into their pit crew’s training schedule in the hope that their improved reactions will speed up pit stops.

Ahead of May’s Turkish Grand Prix Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel stand one and two in the Driver’s Championship and Red Bull Racing twenty points ahead of their nearest rivals, Ferrari.
