Following on from the success of our inaugural High Performance Academy at St. Ignatius College, Riverview 2008, I am very pleased to announce January 8th and 9th as the dates for our 2009 program again to be hosted at St. Ignatius College, Riverview.

High Performance Academy – January 2009 – Application form

This program is specifically designed for those cricketers playing at representative level or its school equivalent and is a key feeder program to the Sydney Cricket Club Academy program and Grade and Green Shield teams. Successful applicants for this elite program will also possess high levels of cricket skill and fitness, be self-disciplined, highly motivated and aged 13 years or above.

Academy participants will train like first class players and be challenged by an intensive program to further enhance their existing skills. On both days, players will have the opportunity to choose specific training in their preferred discipline with expert coaching in Wicket keeping, Batting, Pace and Spin Bowling.

  • Turf Nets
  • Sessions on captaincy, strategy and tactics
  • Video analysis
  • Individual batting session with bowling machine

Again I am looking forward to the opportunity of bringing a group of talented players together with excellent coaches and terrific facilities where all players will gain valuable insights, experience and inspiration from the program.

Cheers.
