Cricket Specific Skills & Drills
Cricket Specific Skills & Drills is about working on what you need to execute your game plan on match day. If it doesn’t happen in the match, it doesn’t get trained.
You don’t waste time on ‘old school nets’ and practices which don’t make any difference to the cricket specific skills and game plans you need for tough game situations against focused opponents.
The mother of learning is repetition, so the training work you do is focused on the exact same drills I use with the pro’s to get their match specific skills to the highest level.
As you master the skills we ‘pressure test’ them by increasing the level of the challenge to ensure you have game that will deliver when you need it, under pressure.
You will wire the skills and scenario’s into your performance so you don’t have to think about technique, just playing the situation and focusing on the right strategy at the right time.
“If It isn’t match specific we don’t do it!

Richard Pybus Testimonials and Coaching Record
A.B de Villiers
Calmness: From the first day I met Richard, he's had the ability to calm players down by just being there. His presence and especially the way of speaking in the heat of battle, have been a joy to witness, I've gained a lot from this.
Game Strategy: Never have I met a Coach who's been this solid with game plans, on & off the field!
Creativity: He always comes up with new, refreshing ideas that keep everyone on their toes. This is certainly one thing I've really enjoyed about him.
These are just a few of many points showing why I think Richard is one of the best, if not the best Coach in the world!!!
It's been a true privilege to have played under him, and I hope our roads will cross again somewhere in the near future!!
Titans, Royal Challengers Bangalore and South Africa
Faf Du Plessis
The time I spent playing with Richard as a young player at the Titans was the best thing for me at that stage in my career, I learnt so much from him.
His positive mental approach to the game and brilliance as a coach in every way will be with me for the rest of my career.
I hope one day to be working with him again.
