Dave coaching is cricket and fitness related and a great wet weather option.
He has 20 years’ experience in the fitness industry training athletes at all levels and helps people move, feel and look better.
Currently at University studying Strength & Conditioning, Dave is the Owner of the award winning Oxygen Health & Fitness Gym in Kiama. They’re available for Indoor Bowling Machine practice by the Hour.
No pads necessary just bring Bat and Gloves for Batting against the David Warner Bowling Machine. From a distance of 12m away you’ll face soft foam balls at speeds of up to 90kmh which is quick over that distance. The ball swings unpredictably and batting in pairs is a great way to get hours of batting practice whilst also improving your running between wickets.
They also have easy access to Kiama Leisure Centre Field Nets but the Gym provides a great Indoor Bowling Machine option for wet weather or mid-week extra training sessions combined with customised gym workouts and quality fitness coaching.
For those young cricketers thinking about a career in fitness, you’ll be able to gain your fitness qualifications via Dave in 2021.
Dave’s cricket background: He played at 1st Grade at 3 South Coast Clubs, represented South Coast and Southern Zone. He never considered himself the most talented or consistent but he’s had a few moments and contributed to the culture of some very good teams.
