Corey Rocchiccioli is pushing to be Australia's next Test spinner having been the leading spin-bowler in Sheffield Shield cricket the past two seasons. But it's not been a straight-forward journey to become Western Australia's first choice spinner. At 18, 'Roc' was playing 4th grade and after changing grade clubs he was the 7th choice spinner at University CC. But through "being naive", a sheer love of cricket, curiosity and an incredible work ethic, Roc has become instrumental in Western Australia's back to back to back Sheffield Shield victories and is well and truly on the radar of the Aussie selectors. This is an inspiring story and one that has so much to still come. Stay tuned for apart 2, where we dig deeper into the Mental, Emotional, Physical & Lifestyle Pillars of Success.

Liam Blackford has always had a bright future in the game. He first represented Victoria and Under 12s and his junior career was filled with selection national team after national team all through the age groups. In 2019 alone, as a 15-year-old, he captained Victoria Country at the 15 & Under National Championships, represented the Cricket Australia Under 16s at the National Under 17 Championships, and then represented the Cricket Australia Under 18s at the National Under 19. Championships. He made his First Grade debut for Geelong as a 16-year-old and scored 97 on debut for Victoria in Second XI at the age of 18. He was then awarded a 2-year Rookie Contract by Cricket Victoria and it looked like a fairy tale rise to the top. Until something major happened in July 2023 that not only threatened playing cricket again but potentially his life.

Question: When I'm training to play short balls (with someone chucking them down from the other end), I generally play them quite well. But when I face short balls in the nets, I tend to hesitate and move away. I'm guessing that's because I prepare myself for a short one during throwdowns, but they're a lot more unpredictable in the nets. What's a good way to solve this challenge?

Hey Legends! Welcome to Monday Mentoring! Every Monday we will be sharing a question from our Cricket Mentoring Community with you. Question: Can you show us the technical points of a good on drive or hitting straight down the ground?

This episode is with one of our favourites at Cricket Mentoring, a fan favourite, one of our incredibly exciting young athletes, and a good mate of mine, Teague Wyllie. Having just turned 17, Teague is still very early in his cricket journey but has achieved a lot in the past couple of years to make him one of the brightest young batting prospects in WA and Australia. Having played the whole season as a 16-year-old, Teague opened the batting for Rockingham-Mandurah in the 1st-grade competition this season and scored 627 runs @ an average of 44.79 the 10th most runs in the competition. His outstanding and really consistent performances, helped his side finish second on the ladder at the end of the season and saw him finish 5th in the umpire voted Best & Fairest award for the competition. Those of you that have followed Cricket Mentoring for a while will know that Teague has been one of our much publicised athletes for a while and has grown his own little following amongst the CM community. I’ve been coaching/ mentoring him for the past 4 years after I reached out to him via Instagram and am really proud of not only the cricketer he is becoming but also the confident and humble young man he is, which I’m sure you will get an insight to through the way he speaks in this episode. While he is still young and has a long, long way to go in the game, cricket is in his DNA and he has an exceptional understanding of the game for his age which he talks about through the episode. I was really excited to do this episode as Even though I know him well, I knew I’d learn more about him and from this conversation. In this episode Teague shared: How his dad taught him the fundamentals of the game that are the pillars of the way he plays now The moment he believed he was good enough to perform at national level which gave him the belief to keep pushing his game and career forward How the Cricket Mentoring tour to India two years ago helped his game against spin and how he uses those lessons in grade cricket How his emotions were on a rollercoaster during an incredible month that saw him score his first, 1st grade century followed by three ducks in a row and how he bounced back from that How he sets up his batting plan for different formats and how he tries to bat all day in two-day cricket Plus a whole lot more! We have a lot of teenage listeners who I have no doubt will get something out of this conversation with a teenager navigating his way through the early stages of his grade cricket career while having big dreams to keep improving and go further in the game. To follow Teague, you can find him on Instagram at @teaguewyllie04 If you enjoy this conversation, please send him a DM letting him know that you listened to the podcast and enjoyed it.

Monday Mentoring Ep05 - Game day mindset We got this question from one of the members of The Cricket Mentoring Community during a LIVE Q & A with Scolls. Q: Couple of questions to you around Game-day Mindset. 1) I felt like I was in a Negative frame of mindset last Game. Maybe, I lacked the motivation compared to the other games I played this season! Any tips/advice around how to change the story (narrative) in my mind to be more positive? or any other advice in general around, how to perform close to your best, if not best, on the days when you lack motivation before a match? 2) Any advice around how can I be more Switched ON before a Match? Have a listen to Scolls answer in this Monday Mentoring Episode 05.

Hey Legends! Welcome to Monday Mentoring! Every Monday we will be sharing a question from our Cricket Mentoring Community with you. This week: Question: When I'm training to play short balls (with someone chucking them down from the other end), I generally play them quite well. But when I face short balls in the nets, I tend to hesitate and move away. I'm guessing that's because I prepare myself for a short one during throwdowns, but they're a lot more unpredictable in the nets. What's a good way to solve this challenge?
