Abstract:
Objective: It has been indicated that the coaching model is fundamental to enhancing the practice and performance of cricket players. There is a need to develop a standardized model of coaching from the perspective of Pakistan to follow by the players and coaches for skill-based training. Thus, the current study aims to explore the feasibility and acceptability of the “Long Term Coaching Development Model” based on the perspective of the Long-term athlete development (LTAD) model (Balyi et al.,2013) in Pakistan. Method: The Qualitative study was conducted through purposive sampling by selecting professional's coaches (N=03) having a minimum of 10 years of experience in the field of cricket coaching, and players (N=20), were recruited in City Cricket Association Player (CCA) Sialkot, Pakistan. A total of 23 semi-structured interviews were conducted. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed by independent researchers. The transcripts were analyzed using a systematic approach that incorporates inductive thematic analysis. Results: The themes emerged that the coaching model comprised the five main elements; i) On Ground Realities 2) Mental Toughness 3) Situational Analysis 4) Development of Match Scenario 5) Improvisation in a different match. Other than the coaching element, effective communication is very important for the player and coach.
