Coaching Qualification: UKCC Level 4

Favourite part of being a Performance Cricket coach: “I love working with and watching players who want to develop and improve. I also enjoy the great variety of settings I work in, from schools and clubs, up to 1-2-1 coaching sessions with elite level players.”

Chris is a fantastic coach if you want to improve: ALL ASPECTS OF YOUR GAME including Batting, Fast Bowling, Spin Bowling, Wicket Keeping and Fielding

Chris Ellison has coached at Henley CC, Berkshire CCC and now at a National Level for the last ten years and enjoyed considerable success. He is firmly committed to the development of young people as cricketers and the further advancement of more senior players at Premiership level. Chris has joined an elite band of coaches who have achieved the ECB’s World Class Level 4 coaching certificate. In 2014, approximately 100 people had achieved this level worldwide. This speaks volumes for his initiative and commitment.
