This week we change lanes somewhat, in exploring what lessons might be learned for cricket coaches from the field of women and girls’ hockey. To do so, we take inspiration from Georgie Wood and Will Cooper, who are captain and coach for the Reigate Priory 1st XI hockey team. We discuss similarities in approach with our own sport, how women’s hockey is much further developed relative to the development of women’s cricket, and some of the on-going struggles that Will is confronted with as a male coach in an otherwise all female environment. Equal parts inspiration and information, you can’t fail to take plenty away from this conversation! 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. The podcast is presented by Tim Ferrone and Darren Talbot. Darren brings an enormous wealth of cricket coaching and development experience, and Tim reckons he spends more time coaching than he does his ‘proper’ job. Both love the sport of cricket and are tremendously passionate advocates of its capacity to benefit all who partake in it. The Community Cricket Podcast is produced by Wrapped Up Music.   Connect with us: If you have a comment or club cricket question you’d like us to address, then just drop us a line at: [email protected] Find out more here: https://www.twenty20cricketcompany.com   Connect with Reigate Priory Hockey Club: https://www.reigateprioryhockeyclub.co.uk/teams/100521   Sponsors: Check out Saitama at www.saitamatoken.com or https://linktr.ee/WeAreSaitama   Advertisers: Enter CCP10 at checkout for a 10% discount with AJ Sports: https://www.AJsports.co.uk     Check out PLAI Sport at https://www.twenty20cricketcompany.com/plai
