UNLOCK YOUR CRICKETING POTENTIAL

Our principles are to encourage players to: 
 
Enjoy all aspects of the game and develop a healthy competitive spirit 
Express their own natural talents

The R66T Academy finances the R66T Foundation, a not-for-profit social enterprise whose purpose is to fund grassroots cricket! 
 
The R66T Academy is all about finding ways to encourage people to play more cricket. By making cricket fun we think we can increase the take up and retention of players. We want to intensify the experience of young players by using the best available technology and expertise. Our Cricket Coaching Camps are set up to be able to achieve this goal. Check out our coaching camps below. 
Via our Schools Partnership Program, we want to engage youngster in our cricket academy with via schools. We want to share ideas coaching techniques with teachers and enhance the delivery of cricket coaching to school-age players. 
Our High Performance Program has been established to see how high players can take their own performance. We do this via camps, tours and residentials by taking players out of their comfort zone, making them uncomfortable and encouraging them to find a way to overcome adversity. We believe this not only develops cricketing skills but it also develops the individual.
