Durham Cricket are recruiting for an Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach.
Further details and how to apply can be found below.
The primary purpose of this role is to support the physical development of cricketers selected in the Durham Cricket Academy, EPP and Pathway age groups. You will provide strength and conditioning (S&C) support to players, focusing on safe, long term athletic development.
You will also provide a structured formal and informal education curriculum for both players and skills coaches, focusing on performance and recovery management. Appropriate and meaningful sports science related information is to be provided to player’s parents/guardians, as part of the club’s broader strategy in optimising player welfare and performance.
Academy players should understand what the expected levels of physical performance are for athletes when graduating to the senior squad and have a long-term plan on how to achieve their individual physical goals.
High competency in utilising technical models of strength and conditioning coaching is requited, whilst having an open-minded approach and desire to contribute and learn from your Science & Medicine department peers.
You will find enjoyment from face-to-face practical coaching in both individual and group sessions and be comfortable adapting to an often-fluid environment.
You shall be committed to continued professional development, and integrating with other strength and conditioning coaches, particularly across English cricket.
