Elite Cricket Testimonial Competition – The Top 10

#1

I heard from a friend how good Elite Cricket was, but hesitated to send my son, as I had shelves of books & DVDs on how to play the game, & was already paying for ”top quality” coaching. Big mistake.

I just wish I hadn’t wasted so much time & money, & gone straight to Elite Cricket. It’s the best investment I’ve ever made.

Mark’s methods are totally different, & a quantum leap above what the other coaches offer.

Right from the 1st session, my son Billy has hit the ball harder, had better footwork, & the difference in his wicket keeping has been astounding. Billy’s technique, & mental approach, are now 100% better.

He continues to improve with each session.

If you aren’t being coached by Elite Cricket, you are missing out!

Elite cricket helped me become a professional cricketer

Mark Atkinson and Elite cricket were the major force in transforming my game and helping me achieve my cricket goals. Through structured sessions and years of experience, Mark built my technique and honed my thinking. Elite Cricket not only developed my batsmanship but my awareness of the game in general. Its influence has undoubtedly made me a better cricketer and, more importantly, helped me to appreciate the game as a whole.

#4

The coaching staff at Elite Cricket has helped me become a better cricketer by correcting flaws in my technique and by helping me understand that there is more to being a successful cricketer than having a good technique. The coaches act as mentors and are very clear in explaining their points; they find the perfect balance between seriousness and enjoying your cricket. It is has been expressed to me by the coaches that cricket is a sport which is predominantly about your mental ability as opposed to your technical skills.

There are six ways my batting has improved due to my eight sessions of training with Elite. My backlift has shortened. My balance at the crease has improved. I have learnt to keep my head still when batting. i have become more confident and attacking as a bat. I have learnt to be more selective in my shots. I have become better at making strong shapes at the crease.

My bowling has improved in three ways. I raise and pull down on my left hand a lot more when I bowl. I have learnt to push my right arm through when bowling to help control my natural inswing. I have started to follow through a lot more.

#6

I’ve been to two Elite Cricket coaching clinics  and it has definitely improved both my bowling and batting.

Whilst at your clinic, I was instructed in basic bowling techniques and this has definitely helped me to bowl with more control.

During the many batting lessons, my stance and foot movement not only improved my balance, but allowed me to accurately dispatch balls to all areas of the field. These lessons have also allowed me to occupy the crease for increasing periods of time.

My coach wants me to be more aggressive with my stroke play because my scoring has been slow.

I feel much more confident in attempting shots since attending your clinics and feel with more tuition, I should be able to achieve a greater scoring repertoire.

Both Mum and Dad have seen such improvement since first attending your clinics, they have agreed to allow me to attend the 5 High Performance Individual Coaching sessions for $400.

On top of all that, I really enjoy the time spent at your clinics learning this wonderful game.

Happy New Year and Thanks heaps for all you’ve done for me and my cricket!

I love cricket and want to play for my country when I grow up. When I went to Elite Coaching in the holidays they helped me with my batting, bowling and wicket keeping – it was really good. I am a pace bowler and my favourite batting stroke is a sweep.

#8

A couple of sessions with Mark and his team really changed my batting. In the space of a month, my average improved by over 20 runs! I posted my personal best score immediately after the first coaching session and I’ve beaten that every time I’ve gone out to bat since. The sessions are great, they’re fast paced and adapted to your skill level and really focused on getting you to be the best you can. I can’t recommend Elite Cricket enough, I’ve got 2 more sessions paid for and I’ll definitely be back to work on my bowling.

#9

I am 9. I am writing on Dad’s computer – he pays for my lessons.

Last year was my first cricket season. I had one good score. After your class I became second best player in my team(in batting and bowling). After everything you taught me(the skills)I practised them over winter. I am still only second best player in my team but the best is a reps team player, and I made reps too!

In reps I am first-change, and was second highest wicket taker for my team.

I led the attack with my club U10s side and have been asked to help at the U11s too.  They even gave me the new ball when I stepped up to the U11s.  I have the best economy rate in U10s and U11s.

The batting skills you taught me helped me to hold my end in our reps quarter final.  We won by just two wickets.

I would like to win these lessons as I would like to continue to improve my skills and become as good a player as Shane Watson (my favourite).

In the years I have been going to Elite cricket, I have not only improved my batting but also my bowling. I always get opportunities to bowl to the other kids at Elite Cricket.

Mark and his team have been so supportive and encouraging that I not only improved my ability and technique but I am also more disciplined, and I am a more confident player. This is easily demonstrated on the field in my leadership qualities.

I would like to thank Mark and his wonderful team at Elite cricket for the excellent coaching, support and encouragement given to me and also for the numerous opportunities presented to me.

I would recommend Elite cricket coaching to any young aspiring cricketer as they will be guided and supported to be great cricketers and receive proper coaching and discipline in all aspects of the game.
