The final day of the Level 1 Coaching Course, conducted by the Coach Education Unit, was successfully led by Coach Educators Nilantha Wimalaweera and Kasela Chamara. The day commenced with an insightful Nutrition Program delivered by Dr. Hashan Amaratunga, focusing on the role of nutrients in enhancing player performance and cricket-specific dietary strategies.

Following this, the coach educators guided participants through session planning exercises, dividing them into four teams to create structured coaching sessions. Coaches were then assigned unique cricket-specific skills such as the pull shot, sweep, follow-through, glove work, and run-up to perform and demonstrate on the field. Each skill was carefully assessed, highlighting the practical application of their learning.

The course concluded with a post-course briefing led by the coach educators, providing valuable feedback and emphasizing the importance of continuous professional development. The successful completion of this program reflects the dedication and growth of participating coaches, equipping them with essential knowledge and skills to elevate cricket coaching standards.
