After 10 years of cricket coaching and 20+ years of playing, I am now coaching at the Sunshine Coast Scorchers Cricket Club and I’ve coached at the University of Tasmania Cricket Club in the senior program. I have experience in batting, spin bowling and fielding so I am eager to pass on my knowledge to developing young players. Cricket is a lifelong passion of mine and I love to instil the passion for the game through my coaching into the new generation of players through private coaching sessions.
I enjoy coaching those who have a set goal and are willing to take the time to build their skills and experience. I want to take athletes under my wing from all skill levels, whether it be grassroots players through to elite. Everyone has something to learn, even I am still learning about the game. My love for cricket began from a young age where I used the game to make friends and get outdoors. From there my passion only grew as I progressed and started playing more competitively. My playing career culminated in my selection to play 17 first class cricket games with the QLD Bulls and 6 List A One Day matches averaging a tick under 50 with the bat. I believe that being involved from a young age taught me valuable life lessons such as resilience, dedication and teamwork which fuelled both my playing and coaching careers. Privately coaching cricket enables me to pass on these skills and experience to aspiring players and I see the real importance of having that one coach you can always revert back to that you have strongly built relationship with not only as a cricketer but as a person as well. I am very passionate about mentoring the next crop of players on their own cricketing journey with being able to pass on advice on lessons learnt on my journey in cricket.

Boys (aged 10 and 12), first session with Sam today. Amazing session, Sam quickly identified areas of strength and areas of development for both boys. Sam was able to connect with the boys and empower them to get the most out of the session. Look forward to further sessions over the coming weeks.
Sam was very invested in getting the best out of our training session. He is very approachable and personable. I can highly recommend Sam for any batting practice. Within 5 minutes Sam had corrected my stance and the results were fantastic. I made comment that I had issues on hitting cut shots and within 10 minutes we ...
