Grafton Development Academy

This programme has been designed by Grafton's Club Coach Mishaan Doolabh.

Back for 2023-24, the Grafton Development Academy targets all our young lions and lionesses aspiring to fully realise their potential and successfully play in their grades through the junior club, and prepare them for the move into higher-grade cricket and into college. This program breaks down the player's individual skill set and works to enhance their technical, mental, tactical and physical capabilities. Capacity is strictly limited to ensure focused attention on your child. Players will improve incrementally over the course of the program and be highly motivated for the season by establishing achievable targets and goals.

Program Breakdown

The programs will be broken down according to the age of your group to ensure all players participating are with their correct cohort, and to give players the ability to grow their game amongst their peers.

Program structure

The Academy program will take place over a 6-week block for either 1 or 1.5 hours (age dependant) at the Grafton Indoor School (Victoria Park).

At Grafton United we use cutting edge cricket analysis AI technology used by top professional teams like Cricket Australia, England Cricket, and the White Ferns to transform our academy experience!

• Bowlers: Analyzes every delivery – speed, swing, spin, length heat map and beehives

• Parents: Download the free viewing app and receive automatic video clips of your child's batting and bowling tagged for each session – witness their progress firsthand
