Title: Top Level Coaching
Post by: renegade on April 06, 2009, 09:28:17 PM: If you are serious about playing cricket and you want to better your technique then call Gary Palmer. Just got back from a 3 hour 1 on 1 session with him and cannot recommend him enough. You can look him up on the following website http://www.ccmacademy.co.uk/one_to_one.html (http://www.ccmacademy.co.uk/one_to_one.html)

Will post some video when it's finished uploading

Title: Re: Top Level Coaching
Post by: renegade on April 30, 2009, 06:24:12 PM: Open stance for the drive was because the bowling machine was round the wicket, more closed stance was for over the wicket. The stance when doing the drive was a half-way position for practicing the drive.

Post by: bucko2007 on April 30, 2009, 06:39:37 PM: Where is he located? I am very interested in getting some coaching, I really want to push on and improve. The coach at my club is a bit too tied for time to give one on one, and I'm finding hard to make progress in casual net practices. I live in Coventry if anyone can recommend a coach?

Title: Re: Top Level Coaching
Post by: renegade on May 04, 2009, 05:28:22 PM: ran it from 70 up to 85

Post by: Nespresco on August 19, 2009, 06:10:19 PM: If you dont mind me asking, what standard of cricket are you playing? I would love coaching like that, but would being a weaker batsmen mean I wouldnt get as much from it and be wasting my money, or would it help be bat up the order ?

Post by: renegade on August 19, 2009, 06:34:29 PM: only playing village cricket nowadays. He will be able to help you whatever level you play at, you just tell him what you want to get out of the session and he will tailor it to suit your requirements

Post by: Nespresco on August 19, 2009, 11:53:11 PM: It's quite a lot of money though, did you notice any real difference in your game from the session ?
Title: Re: Top Level Coaching
