Learning from the Aussie set-up, with Henry Cupitt
Listen now
Description
This week’s interview sees Henry Cupitt joining us all the way from New South Wales, Australia. Henry has a tremendous wealth of experience as a club, association development and pathways coach both here in the UK and in Australia, having worked for Middlesex Cricket and the MCC, coaching privately and in the Kent Girls pathway. Henry is now a Cricket manager for Cricket NSW, driving participation in a region several times larger than the whole of the UK.   This week’s conversation seeks to compare and contrast the coaching and club environments in both Australia and the UK, in an effort to reveal best practice, and understand some of the reasons for differences and similarities alike, as well as the thought processes behind them. We consider regional pathways, the benefits of non-turf pitches, the impact of increasing profile and professionalism within the women’s game and how each system seeks to draw in and retain the interest of the very youngest participants.   The Community Cricket Podcast is a new series created for anyone seeking to help club cricket thrive, brought to you by the people at Twenty 20 Community Cricket Ltd.   Enjoy the show!   Notes on podcast series:   The Community Cricket Podcast is brought to you by Twenty 20 Community Cricket Ltd, a not-for-profit organisation aiming to support and promote cricket in state schools, to develop young cricketers of all ages & backgrounds and to develop associate cricket nations at all levels.
