There have been hundreds of books written on the subject of cricket
coaching over the past two centuries. This book does not attempt to
add to that list. Instead it attempts to provide young cricketers
with nontechnical tips and techniques to help them develop into
successful young cricketers. The Young Cricketer's Companion is for
all young cricketers who wish to raise their level of performance.
The book provides performance tips and valuable insights into the
mental side of the game - the psychology of cricket - at a level
suited to those aged between 10 and 18 years. The author covers the
mental aspects of batting, bowling, fielding and wicket-keeping, as
well as fitness, pre-season preparation, practice and captaincy.
'.... for many years we have seen a plethora of books based on
improving cricketing techniques. Seldom do we come across an
approach to cricket which encompasses so many facets of the game,
such as physical, mental and nutritional preparation. A good read
for any players serious about their cricket who wish to improve
their performance....' Peter Watt, Head of Physical Education, Hutt
International Boys' School. 'The Young Cricketer's Companion is a
wonderful book for any young cricketer who loves cricket and wishes
to take his game to the next level. The book offers sound advice
and a common sense, simple approach to a game that can sometimes be
overcomplicated by those charged with coaching the game. What sets
it apart from many of the other books about youth cricket is the
underlying "mental approach" to the game that the author subtly
refers to consistently throughout the book. Cricket at the higher
level is all about the "top six inches" and the sooner our
cricketers are exposed to this at the lower levels the better I
believe they will become.' Mark Borthwick, Coaching Director,
Cricket Wellington.
