West Indies international Shane Dowrich has provided some feedback on the Qualifi Level 3 Diploma in the Principles of Cricket Coaching after recently enroling on the online coaching course.
The 31-year-old - who made his Test debut in the home series against Australia in 2015 - enroled on our Level 3 Coaching Diploma during the pre-sale window, with the player looking to upskill himself as a coach as he starts to look ahead to his own coaching career.
Dowrich, and all other Diploma coaches, began the course by learning about the importance of coaching philosophy and coaching environment, before moving on to the Skill Acquisition module, which covers the stages of learning, types of guidance and types of practice. The next module the coaches will tackle is the batting module, which is set to be released later this week.
Discussing the Diploma, Dowrich said: “I am definitely looking to transition into coaching and I think this course is a good place to start building my coaching knowledge and adding to my qualifications. I’ve been following The R66T Academy for a while and I like the innovation and the direction in which the company is going, so I decided to give the Diploma a try.
“It has been pretty interesting so far and I'm loving the content. It has been tough to balance the required work and still manage my playing career at the moment, but I'm optimistic that I will find a way to get both done.
“I'm always looking for ways to improve my coaching and learn as much as possible so I can help the next generation.”
Dowrich has achieved 35 Test caps in his professional career, scoring 1570 runs and registering three 100s and nine 50s. Moreover, he also featured for the ODI side against Bangladesh in 2019. The wicketkeeper batter has played nine times against England during his Test career, scoring 116* against The Three Lions in Bridgetown in 2019.
The Qualifi Level 3 Diploma in the Principles of Cricket Coaching consists of six modules; Skill Acquisition, Batting, Bowling, Fielding, Wicket Keeping and Strength and Conditioning. Each module contains various topics related to the module. After each module has been completed, there is an assessment to cement your understanding, which will be marked by a R66T Academy coach to determine your final result.
The content has been developed by R66T Academy coaches including Shaun Shaun Seigert - High Performance Director and former coach of Joe Root. The Diploma aims to upskill coaches on how to coach, not what to coach. It is suited to coaches at various stages of their coaching journey.
It contains never-before-seen footage of Billy and Joe Root when they were first batting as young players, and exclusive masterclass footage from players including Joe, Billy, Tammy Beaumont, Ben Duckett, Ish Soshi, Joshua Da Silva, Jamie Porter, Henry Shipley and players from the High Performance Program in Adelaide.
