- Description
The U18 Performance Programme is ECA’s most comprehensive development programme for young cricketers who are serious about getting better and want to perform at a higher level.
The programme goes beyond traditional training environments, providing players with the opportunity to explore the technical, tactical, physical and mental aspects of performance. Sessions combine individual skill development with challenging, game-relevant practice, helping players develop their skills and deepen their understanding of what it takes to perform.
The programme is structured across the winter to provide a clear progression in training. The pre-Christmas block focuses on skill acquisition and development, giving players the opportunity to develop, refine and add to their skills. The post-Christmas block focuses on skill execution and game skills, challenging players to apply those skills effectively in increasingly competitive and game-relevant situations.
Players will work with ECA’s most experienced coaches, bringing international and professional experience across both the men’s and women’s game, alongside extensive experience developing players to perform at the highest levels.
Whether the goal is to break into a school or club first team, progress into regional cricket, or compete at national level, the programme is designed for players who want to perform better and are prepared to work hard to get there.
