Other Info

Throughout my time as a coach I have mentored 5 players to become Professionals. By mentoring this goes further than just coaching. I have been involved in supporting their development as a young person into a full professional cricketers.

I constantly strive to grow my audience size and look beyond just the basic 1-1 coaching by also taking my coaching online and available to players throughout the world.

I have a personality which can be described as an influencer and if I believe in a specific product or style then I ensure that I share that with as wide an audience as possible.
