Chris is club junior coordinator at North Weald CC. Through his early involvement in coaching kids at the club he saw himself forging a career in teaching which he now does. Chris is very grateful to Bob Wood for his mentorship and stresses the importance of the kids having fun and enjoying themselves when they practise. Seeing the look on their faces when they enjoy their cricket is the thing that makes all the investment in time so worth it. Chris’s coaching mantra is all about: Dealing with the cause not the symptom Have a lot of patience Ask good questions Intuition Keep things simple.
