Coaches are critical to the success of any cricket development programme and as a result the Leinster Cricket Union have been in close working contact with Coaching Ireland, the newly formed all-island body who will lead the development of coaching in Ireland.
Coaching Ireland will take a lead role in highlighting the importance of quality coaching in developing our athletes and providing opportunities for participation. Significant change has been undertaken in relation to course syllabus and course material, the result being the delivery of a more professional course and the production of higher quality coaches.
