The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) is all set to introduce their first two satellite academies in Thane and Navi Mumbai by May this year. To initiate the process, MCA has invited applications from qualified coaches for the post of academy head.
“We [MCA] are planning to start six satellite academies in different regions. We will begin with Thane and Navi Mumbai. The plan is to start these two academies within the next four months,” MCA president Amol Kale told mid-day on Wednesday.
As per the association’s website, the head of the satellite academies should have played first-class cricket and be a NCA Level-3 certified coach. Designing and implementing coaching modules for different age groups and defining long-term player development pathways will be some of the key responsibilities of academy head.
