We are well are truely looking into our winter training with week 5 done and dusted. We were stoked to have Dan Rixon and Baxter Holt from Prime Mind Coaching Present to our Athletes last night.

Cricket isn’t just about runs and wicket, wins and losses but the journey and the friendship that are made. Dan and I played together over 20 years ago at Sutherland District Cricket Club and it was great to have him involved with our program in Newcastle helping our athletes understand how the brain works and think but also supporting them with the mental challenges that this great game brings up.

I personally took alot out of it and I’m sure our Elite Academy Athletes did aswell
