Recently setting up a company, Sports Mentoring, which looks at ways that can assist in raising the standard of coaching across a number of sports in the UK
In cricket, a sport where the difference between hitting a boundary for four runs vs. taking an edge on the bat for a caught behind dismissal is millimeters certain aspects are crtical.Pete explains, "technique is critical, coaches need to realize the potential and accuracy of video analysis, siliconcoach is simple to use, assists both player and coach, accelerates learning and is quite simply a must have"

How do you use siliconcoach?
I use SC for the analysis of cricket skills; that is across the range of batting, bowling and fielding. I have a 'high speed' camera which captures footage at 300fps, rather than the standard 25 fps, this in conjunction with siliconcoach gives me the opportunity to give detailed feedback to the participants.
I also use siliconcoach to make up presentations to give to players for their own opportunity to analyse their game. With experience in working within first class cricket for a long duration, I am also often asked to create presentations for other coaches taking their cricket coaching qualifications.
Benefits of using siliconcoach
Too many to mention, I work with many players from county level down, what really works well is the fact that players can now 'feel' what they are doing when playing their shot or bowling, and then 'see' what they are really doing after, especially with timeWARP instance delay/replay, with the ability to see what they are actually doing versus the feel they are essentially moving to a self taught position but with guidance on some critical technique positions.
