Cricket Academy | How to choose cricket academy? | Top 10 cricket academies in India.

Hi guys, in this article you will get the information to choose a right academy. If you want to become a professional cricketer and doesn't want personal coach then it is necessary for you to get a good cricket academy. You can become a good cricketer if you join a good cricket academy, good and quality coaching. Otherwise there are many such coaching academies which are only for earning money and the coaches are not professional to provide you good coaching. 

BASIC FACILITIES IN CRICKET ACADEMIES :

The first thing is the location of cricket academy. The location of cricket academy matters because if you are giving most of time to traveling for reaching academy and not in a practice then this is not going good for you. Because, you also have to manage your time in cricket and some other time to study and other works too. But, if there is no option for you means there is no good and quality academy near you so you can go to that academy which is more near and good. You should give more time to your practice. 

The second things come here is pitch. Their are many types of pitches like cement pitch, batting pitch and etc. If it is there then you will get a good chance for practicing in different situations. You should also focus that the balls which are used are of good quality. The another thing to check is the students and coach ratio. If one coach is coaching more than 25 students, then you should not go to that academy. Because, if this is the situation you will not get the personal attention which is the required here. 

The academy should have a cricket ground along with nets. Every weekend there should be match conducted so you will get where is your fault and your interest in the game also be maintained. The another thing to be mentioned that the coach should be fitness conscious. There should be 15 minute running and stretching before the session for your fitness. Along with that there should be fitness session in a week so you will be ready for the match. As fitness is very important for cricketer or any sportsperson. There should attention for your fielding performance. 

COACH :

Coaches are most important thing in the cricket academy. It is good to have a experienced and qualified coach. There are many qualifications is the coaches like BCCI level 1 coach, level 2 coach, and etc. Coach should be professional and understand yourself. They should have a good knowledge about the game. But, it is not necessary that all good coaches have some qualification. Some coaches which are not qualified are also a good coach. Your coach should pay personal attention in your game and fitness too. They should also understand your problem and solve it. Your coach should be strict and restrict you on doing wrong things like you are playing unprofessional shots. A good coach always say to you to play classic shots first and then improve your game is you are batsman. And similarly to the Bowler and wicket keepers. 

MY PERSONAL VIEW :

Here, I am sharing my personal

experience about academy. I have good experience of my academy. The starting 20 to 30 minutes are for running and stretching. We have 6 days in a week and some days it is for net session, drills, knocks and some are for fielding, fitness and the last day of the week is for match. We have a small ground that is about 30 yards boundary in our academy. It was small cricket academy which I have chosen because there are less number of students per coach and we can do extra practice after the session and in holidays also. 

The coaches are pretty good and they have some experience of state level cricket. In my city, there is BCCI level cricket academy but I have chosen this academy because it is near to me and it is still comfortable for me. I have learned lots of cricket their. The best thing was that at Sunday we have a cricket match of about 30 overs and in a week their is open net session which are useful to get mistakes in our practice. The coaches are friendly to us. 

So, according to me you should choose a academy where you can adjust yourself as a beginner and if you have developed so much of game you can go to BCCI level cricket academies.

WHAT TO DO IN RAINY SEASON :

We have discussed earlier about how to find a good academy. But, what to do in rainy season. If your cricket academy had the facility of cement ground for monsoon season then that's good. But, it is not there then don't pay the fees if monsoon. Instead of this you will find an indoor cricket academy in your city where you can continue your practice. For match practice you can make a team with your colleagues or friends and book a cricket ground which have facilities of covers and drainage. For monsoon season there is only need of nets with cement pitch in indoor cricket academy. So, you can continue your practice.
