The Yardy

What it is (and what you get)

The Yardy™ by C’mon Lads is a set of 12 numbered cricket bowling run-up markers (1–12) that help you lock in a consistent bowling start point. Set them once, start from the same spot each time, and keep your run-up routine simple.
In the box: 12 cricket bowling markers (each with a unique number), so every bowler in the team can have their own — with spares for the ones that “disappear”.
Unlike the usual two identical runup markers, The Yardy stops the borrowing, guessing, and no-ball chaos.

Amateur cricket

Welcome to amateur cricket, where blokes will spend “don’t tell the missus” money on a bat… then start their run-up from “somewhere near the sightscreen” and wonder why they’re bowling pies.
Funny how no one “forgets” their box — because the consequences are… memorable. Yet half the team turns up with a run-up start point based on vibes, then acts shocked when it’s no-ball city. Sort it out. Lock in your start mark.

You know the scenes:

  • Someone ploughs a line in the grass like they’re landscaping the oval… then can’t find it two balls later.

  • Next bowler looks at your “very unique” line… and it’s mysteriously identical to the other four lines that have appeared since warm-up. Now everyone’s guessing and pretending it’s “close enough.”

  • Someone spends another five minutes reverse-measuring their run-up like it’s a physics experiment… when the real issue is they just can’t find their mark.

  • Someone “borrows” a mate’s marker and suddenly you’re doing sprints between deliveries trying to get it back.

  • Two identical markers get tossed in the kit… and vanish into the same dimension as lost socks and 10mm sockets.

 

Most run-up markers are sold as a set of two and they all look exactly the same — which is perfect if you enjoy losing them.

Why the Yardy works (Teams and Juniors)

  • Unique number — pick it, own it, stop stealing your mate’s mark

  • Train properly — same start point, same rhythm, less front-foot drama

  • Spare markers included — with a set of 12 you basically never run out again (even when a few “disappear”)

  • Free hits at the worst time — nothing like your mate donating one in the final over and acting surprised

 

Junior cricket rules: everyone bowls, no hiding. So just get the set — every kid gets a marker, even the one who’s about to bowl “mystery pace” and call it strategy.

Quick recap

12 numbered cricket bowling runup markers (1–12) that keep bowlers consistent, keep teams organised, and keep extras from outscoring half the batting lineup.
