The aim of Pro Cricket Academies is to motivate, improve and educate all players boys, girls, women & men that attend what ever their age or ability. By raising standards we will improve their cricketing performance in the process.
We cater for men, women, girls and children aged five years to adults. What ever your ability we have sessions that cater for everyone. We also run boys and girls elite sessions for County and District cricketers aged 11 - 21yrs.
We base our nets on ability not age. We currently have four U13 boys and our elite girls training with the men. This is based on their maturity, physicality and cricketing ability. It provides a more challenging environment and will fast track their learning.
Our adult sessions are attended by minor county players so the standard is very good but we also differentiate this session for the club cricketer that's also keen to improve their game.
We use bowling machines and video analysis to aid develop of all our players and upload a lot of footage to YouTube. We have had over 1.2M views. Player initiated learning is a big part of what we do.
If you have the passion and desire to improve your game then our courses and coaching team will create an environment for you to achieve your goals and have greater success out in the middle.
The Head Coach Brad Donelan is an ECB Level 3 coach, Ex professional cricketer, and has 38 years coaching experience around the globe and has worked with International coaches
(Duncan Fletcher & Peter Moores). Your game is in safe hands.
In September 2019 we opened a girls/women's only academy in Chester; a unique opportunity for female only professional coaching.

Testimonials:
Simon Spence - Parent
"Brad has an understanding and depth of knowledge of the techniques involved in both playing and coaching sport that is outstanding. However what truly sets him apart from other sports coaches is his unparalleled ability to convey the right message at the right time to the player that he is teaching – whatever their ability and experience. Simply put, he is a wonderful communicator – and when this is added to his sense of fun, and his sporting ability, the result is an extremely enjoyable and positive improvement for all of his pupils. I would recommend Brad as a coach without reservation to any parent that has a child that is interested in sport – whatever level they are at. He will get the best out of them and, equally as important, they will thoroughly enjoy the whole experience".

My son Liam has been working with Brad over the past 3 years since the age of 8. He inspired Liam to do more than he thinks he can. He has a good understanding of Liam’s attitude, personality, response ability and sensitivity. Liam has developed as a good cricketer during this period and performing well in Cheshire county youth teams. The highlight of last year was that Liam was the leading run scorer across all age groups in Cheshire youth cricket scoring 724 runs. I would recommend Brad to young cricketers. Liam is continuing to work with Brad and enjoys his coaching very much.
