Cricket-training facility opens in Minnetonka

The first indoor cricket training facility in the state opened over the weekend in Minnetonka. Eka Sport teamed up with the Minnesota Youth Cricket Academy (MYCA) to find a space they could utilize year-round. Prior to opening this facility, MYCA would use batting cages in the winter, but that doesn?t provide the kind of space needed. MYCA offers programs for beginners through advanced athletes. There are about 70 kids in the program now but with this new space they?re hoping to grow it, as the popularity of the sport surges in the US. Eka Sport is located at 15314 Minnetonka Industrial Rd.
