The program begins next month and will provide 61 emerging players from around the state with the opportunity to further develop their game in a high-performance environment.
Current and former players, skill acquisition experts and Cricket Victoria’s coaching and talent specialists will lead the program.
The sessions will help prepare the Vic Metro and Vic Country squads for the under 17 National Championships which will be held in Tasmania in January.
“We’ve got a very exciting group of talented young players coming through at under 17 level,” Cricket Victoria’s Manager of the Male Emerging Players Program Tom Evans said.
“We’ll use these sessions held in Melbourne and regional areas, together with our trial matches and the early rounds of the season, to select our Victorian squads for the National Championships.
“The coaching and insight into cricket at the professional level will be of great benefit to all members of the Emerging Players Program and we look for to seeing their development throughout the course of the season.”
