My Story
I'm Praveen. Out here at Willow Sportz, you’ll hear me shout 'Well bowled da!' or 'Top hand tight!' all day. I believe anyone with passion can become a cricketer, not just the naturally talented. I’ve seen regular kids turn into KSCA zonal selection players with pure hard work. Doesn’t matter if you’re a total beginner or already smashing runs, if you’ve got the hunger, we’ll build the rest together.
My Work
Cricket Coaching for All - We train boys and girls, beginners to seniors. Special girls cricket coaching batches and flexible weekday/weekend sessions.
Drills and Technique - We break down skills like high elbow drive, seam release, and more. Drills, footwork, match awareness - all step by step.
Champion Mindset - Discipline, effort, and teamwork. Our players make KSCA zonal selection and win trophies because they put in the work.
Beyond Cricket - We teach handling pressure, focus, and confidence. Expect reaction drills, match practice, and a strong body, strong game.
