Kishan Balgobin is a player in our U-13 program. His father Sunil has played at the national youth and senior level here in Canada.

Here is what Kishan's father wrote:

I just wanted to let you in on my thoughts about OCA. I was watching my son, Kishan, in the nets a few days ago and was amazed at the progress that he has made over the past year.  He has matured from a baseball swinging type of batsman to one that has a very nice blossoming technique. His elbow is up, he tries to get to the pitch of the ball, and he knows just when to attack or defend! He has also developed an excellent bowling action in which he has learnt to deliver from a position of strength.  It is truly amazing that you and your team of coaches were able to make a cricketer out of Kishan. Not only Kishan but every child that I have observed has developed significantly over a short period of time.

I like the way that you interact with the kids, being jovial and friendly, and also stern when needed. It is my opinion that this allows the children to enjoy the process of learning the game as well as learn to appreciate the seriousness of training. This incorporated with some excellent training techniques and mini programs make your organization an excellent environment for developing cricketers.  It is no wonder many of your youngsters get selected to represent Canada.

In essence, I am happy my son is training under your organization. Maybe he will also one day play for Canada .Keep up the good work!
