Cricketcoach launches new Apps to let you be the coach!

If you are a budding cricketer and keen to improve your game, or a beginner to the sport, help is now at hand with new mobile applications from Cricketcoach Limited, which address batting, bowling and fielding.

Produced in this Olympic year by fully qualified and experienced UK cricket coaches Joe Eaton, his brother Sam, and lifelong friends Matt Sanderson and Rob Hodson-Walker, and their team of coaches and successful players their theme of ‘you be the coach' is now ready for download.

Having spotted a niche in the lack of ‘cricket training' material, they have developed the fully interactive Apps for players of all standards - from beginners to advanced.

Believed to be the first Apps to provide such level and depth of detail in a fun and interactive way, the Apps are now available from all of the Apps stores, including iTunes, Android Google play and Blackberry App world.

The fully interactive Apps are packed full of clear analysed images and video clips to help the player to learn how to play the perfect cover drive, spin the ball sideways, and take every catch!

Joe Eaton founder and managing director of Cricketcoach Limited commented, "Having been involved with cricket for over 20 years, both in the UK and Australia, interactive training material has always been missing for me, and it has traditionally been left to the individual to seek advice from other players on how they are playing.

"And with coaching not always being available, or very expensive and seasonal, it is often very difficult to fit in one-to-one sessions whilst at school and playing games during an evening.

"However, our brand new Apps make coaching accessible to everyone and enables both players and parents to become the coach, by putting professional cricket coaching in the palm of their hands through their Smartphone - which will be invaluable to players of all skill levels.

"Both the coach and the player can now view the correct techniques for bowling, batting and fielding through expert coaching pointers, sharp videos and analysed pictures.

"They can then flick through the coaching points with views from different angles and use the ‘ghost overlay' images to compare themselves by uploading a picture of them in position, and then take the challenges to test their individual progress.

"And best of all, you can take the Apps everywhere with you - and improve your game knowledge whenever you have time for a personal coaching session.

"We also hope that the Apps will help to remove the boundaries of cricket as an elite sport and generate interest from people currently not involved with the game, as they can learn the sport in their own time, and then put their new found knowledge to use on the pitch!

"If a child has watched cricket on the TV and taken an interest and wants to start playing and learn how to, the Apps give a parent or guardian, the ability to teach the basics, including how to hold the bat and how to bowl the ball - regardless of experience."

The Apps are packed with photos and videos and contains more information and detail than you can usually find in manuals or expensive coaching courses.

The fourdirectors are well versed in their cricket experience having represented county cricket from under 11's upwards, captained teams to national finals and played in premier league cricket, - where they were awarded young players of the year.

All fourhave also been head coaches of various English premier league clubs and have vastexperience of coaching in a school environment - and have represented British universities cricket.

The Apps can be purchased from iTunes, Android Google play and Blackberry App world or atwww.cricketcoachapp.com.
