Current Vacancies
Cricket East - Community Coaches (multiple vacancies)
Cricket East runs several projects year-round that require coaches to deliver on an adhoc basis. These could be within schools, community, club, or pathway sessions. Our emphasis is on delivering safe sessions that are fun and engaging for all participants involved, with needs of sessions dependent on the different audience we are delivering too. For example, a school session will need to be focused on providing a positive first experience of cricket, engaging for all and focused on developing a range of skills whereas a pathway session may include more technical coaching, skill specific. Handling large groups and children with behavioural challenges may also be skills required for those coaching in community environments. Training and support can be provided to all dependent on what type of delivery.
Areas we are most in need of coaches include:
Luton
Leighton Buzzard
