The High-Performance Coaching Program is accredited by Cricket Australia and is a nationally recognised coaching course. It provides the foundation for any coach working in high-performance cricket. Successful candidates are supported by their respective State and Territory Associations as well as Cricket Australia coach educators throughout the duration of the program.
The program is facilitated over a 12-month period via a blended-learning format. The program commences in April 2022 and includes three intensive learning phases (1x online series and 2x residentials) between April and August 2022. Coaches will also be required to complete a research project throughout the duration of the program.
To allow for more tailored and personalised learning experience for the candidate coaches, only limited spots are available.
