Psychology of Cricket Workshop

Zac believes that, historically, cricket players and coaches have not placed enough emphasis on the mental aspect of the sport. He believes that cricket is played as much between the ears as it is played anywhere else. And that when you combine sound physical, technical, AND mental coaching, you can help players realise their true potential.

However, an obstacle that many players face is that they do not know enough about the mental side of the game to get better at it. To overcome this problem, Zac has built a workshop on the psychology of cricket that teaches players of all abilities the key concepts of the mental side of the game – empowering the player with the knowledge they need to develop a mindset that will lead to consistent high performance.  

The workshop is relevant to cricketers of all genders, ages, abilities, and disciplines. However, it does have a high-performance focus and so is most appropriate for cricketers who are looking to take their games to the next level. Cricket coaches have also found the workshop useful as it equips them with knowledge about the mental aspects of the game which they can incorporate into the services they offer their clients.  

Zac teaches the workshop in-person or online to individuals or groups. The once-off workshop typically takes 1.5-2 hours to complete. Please see the CONTACT page if you are interested in booking Zac to present the Psychology of Cricket workshop at your club, school, or academy.

Success Stories

“Zac’s presentation on the mental side of cricket is brilliant. It addresses a part of the game that is often neglected. Cricketers are so quick to work on their technique. They would be well advised to spend time working on their mental approach too. Zac’s presentation give cricketers the framework to do this.”

Andrew Puttick (Former South Africa opening batsman and current Pakistan Batting Coach)

“I booked Zac to present his workshop to some of the most talented youngsters at my academy as well as their parents and also some of my coaches. Zac delivered his presentation in a way that everyone could understand and follow. The feedback from everyone there was overwhelmingly positive. To this day the players still lean on the concepts Zac taught them to work on their mental approach to the game.”

Ryan Maron (Founder of Cricket School of Excellence and current Afghanistan Assistant Coach)

“We brought Zac in to give his workshop on the psychology of cricket as part of the delivery of Surrey CCC’s sixth form development programme at George Abbot School. Zac presented extremely well. The framework that he taught will undoubtedly help our players become better cricketers by being smarter cricketers. Zac’s workshop on the psychology of cricket is simple, easy to follow, and straight-forward to understand. I look forward to seeing how our players use the framework and how it will facilitate their development.”
