ICC High Performance Officer Andrew Pick will be visiting Bermuda from October 6 – October 11, 2010 to work with Bermuda’s National Cricket Teams.
Mr. Pick will be working with the fast bowlers in the Senior National Team and the under/19s. Bermuda’s national cricket coach David Moore said “I am extremely pleased that Bermuda cricket has the opportunity to utilize Andy’s fast bowling coaching expertise. It will be of great benefit to the players and coaches alike to work with Andy and learn from his experiences working with some of the world’s top fast bowlers.”
Coach Moore continued by saying “Andy will work intensively with our elite fast bowlers and coaches as we seek improvement in our players through the use of video analysis and cutting edge skills and drills.”
Mr. Pick is responsible for the management, planning and implementation of a range of programs aimed at assisting the continued growth, development and improvement of cricket within the 17 member countries of the ICC Americas Region.
A former England A team player, the specialist fast bowling coach worked with the England Under-19 team in the 2006 U-19 World Cup before being appointed in March 2006 to coach that Canada’s national team in the run-up to the 2007 World Cup. As a medium-pace bowler he played for Nottinghamshire between 1983 and 1997 before moving into coaching.
Coach Moore said “This will be a great way to commence our off season program moving toward both the WCL Division 2 qualifiers in April and the U19 CWC Regional qualifiers.”
