Mr Beatty
Coaches Training day, Oakham CC
"Within 10-15 minutes of the opening chat in the pavilion I’d learned loads, including the common misconceptions that can stifle a kid’s enjoyment and development – ‘don’t try to bowl fast but work an accuracy’ or ‘don’t hit it too hard’ etc. I’ve completely changed my approach as a result"

Matt Keech
Dorset CCC Head Coach
"Tom has been a great help working with the players on the Dorset EPP programme. He has provided great insight in to the tactical side of the game to all the players including working with the batters on technical points and bowling in specific times in the game. He has quickly built up a good relationship with all the players and has a coaching style that allows sessions to flow and become player lead. His enthusiasm has really rubbed off on the players."

Lewis McManus
Hampshire CCC and England U19's
“I believe that Tom assessed me very quickly and challenged me ahead of my years. He was testing me and teaching me new shots and theory’s which would hold me in good stead for Hampshire Second team cricket. The sessions we did gave me a much broader knowledge of the art of batting and taught me that basics are the key and that the best batsmen in the World just do the basics very well."

"Having coached alongside Tom this season, it's clear that he has a real passion for what he does. He always looks to improve every player he works with, and treats everyone as an individual. I am particularly impressed with how well run and supported his group coaching sessions are, and for young players, the environment created by Tom is ideal for improving skills whilst having fun."

Chris Jones
Somerset CCC
"I was fortunate enough to work with Tom at Sherborne school, my first coaching experience. His attitude and enthusiasm towards the game were really impressive and surpassed that of coaches I worked with in my playing days. I also learnt alot from him about how to motivate your players and I think the rapport he generates with his players is exceptional. This combined with his knowledge of the game and his desire for continual improvement make him a very impressive coach."
