how does that prove what you were saying?
a quote from the ECB CA website:
The ECB - under the direction of its Cricket Department - runs a National Coaching Scheme, which is designed to equip coaches with the necessary skills to deliver high quality coaching programmes at all levels of the game.
Up to and including Level 3 of this scheme is managed by Tim Lumb from the ECB Community Coach Education Office at Edgbaston. Level 4 and above is managed by Gordon Lord, ECB's Head of Elite Coach Development.
This shows that that cricket coaches are administered by the ECB although they have to meet certain standards set by Sports Coach UK.
The old ecb level 1 is not the new assistant coach award it is more equivalent to the ecb level 2 and can be converted into such with attendance at a conversion course
There is also above shown a 'ECB young leader award'
