Coaching Bio

Cricket Coach and Professional Strength & Conditioning Coach and Exercise Scientist with Masters and PhD Degrees. I provide a unique opportunity for young cricket athletes who are serious about improving their game. Coaching sessions integrate both technical cricket training (batting, bowling, fielding) with specific cricket strength & conditioning training (strength, power, endurance and mobility). Sessions can be done in Bassendean (Jubilee Reserve) or Melville (Melville Reserve) cricket nets and will involve equipment such as medicine balls, power bands and strength bands.

After representing WA U17 and U19 State Cricket Squads and playing WACA and WASCA 1st Grade, I moved into coaching in my young 20s. Now I am an accredited Exercise Scientist and Strength and Conditioning Coach with formal qualifications including a Masters and PhD degrees in exercise and sports performance science. In addition to my own sporting experiences, I have over 10 years experience coaching cricket, hockey and physical performance with development, sub-elite and elite athletes. My approach to cricket coaching is to provide high-level training by ensuring a staged development in all aspects of the game (physical, technical, tactical, psychological). Cricket has changed quickly and will continue to do so. To ensure the next generation of cricketers are adequately prepared for the ever-growing demands of the sport, the way we need to coach our developing players must evolve. My coaching involves training and consistent testing to monitor performance and maximise your potential. All athletes will have a specific individual cricket screening including mobility, strength & power testing and will also be provided with an at-home training program specifically designed for them and their sport. For those interested, I also coach gym-based sessions for more advanced strength & conditioning training which are currently located at LiveFit Gym Australia in Bassendean.
