The R66T Academy is delighted to announce it has partnered with Cricket Switzerland, the national governing body for cricket within Switzerland.
Based in the Swiss capital of Berne, Cricket Switzerland represents a thriving cricketing community of over 3,000 players of all ages and their families. As a member of both the Swiss Olympic and the International Cricket Council (ICC), Cricket Switzerland promotes and develops the sport across the nation, fostering inclusivity, excellence, and a passion for the game.
The partnership will see The R66T Academy become the official coaching partner of Cricket Switzerland, which will include Coach Education webinars with high-profile and established coaches. These sessions will be delivered to the thriving Cricket Switzerland coaching community.
Cricket Switzerland will promote The QUALIFI Level 3 Diploma in the Principles of Cricket Coaching to its growing list of coaches within the country. Moreover, The R66T Academy will host Coach Education workshops in Switzerland, which will also feature experienced coaches from around the globe.
Both parties will work closely together to promote all R66T Academy coaching camps and events around the world, throughout the year. With The R66T Academy increasing its cricketing opportunities year-on-year, it is the perfect time to work with a motivated national governing body like Cricket Switzerland.
George Bartlett, Lead Programme Manager of the R66T Academy, said: “We are delighted to be working with Cricket Switzerland on this partnership, which is a first of its kind. The R66T Academy is growing its audience in Europe and it will be an honour to work with a national governing body such as Cricket Switzerland to enhance their coach education and playing opportunities".
Meanwhile, Bijit Maji from Cricket Switzerland, said: “Cricket Switzerland is excited to leverage its association with the R66T Academy to help nurture and develop talent at the junior level. Additionally, we believe this partnership will enable us to enhance the capacity, capability and skilling-up of our local coaches.
“This will greatly benefit Cricket Switzerland’s efforts to promote and develop Cricket at the grassroots level, including contributing to the well-being and successful integration of vulnerable refugee youth in Switzerland through love of the sport of cricket. Cricket Switzerland is looking forward to a most fruitful collaboration with the R66T Academy!”
