In its endeavour in creating world-class cricketers, the Tendulkar Middlesex Global Academy (TMGA) today announced the launch of its first state-of-the-art cricket academy and sports centre in the world at DY Patil Navi Mumbai.

Around 200 students from ages 7 to 21 spread across two batches would be imparted training in the finer nuances of the game under the watchful eyes of the experienced coaches led by global head coach Josh Knappett and the head coach at DY Patil ex-Indian international Vinod Kambli.

Apart from on-field cricket coaching, there would be strength, conditioning, psychology and tactical based sessions. These sessions would help students improve both cricket and life skills aligning with the vision of TMGA in creating not just better cricketers but better global citizens.

Both the morning and evening batch would be of two and a half hours each and students would have four sessions per week for 12 months. Alongside the cricket coaching, students would have access to the sports centre where students can play Tennis, Football, Basketball, Badminton, Swimming, indoor games and Squash (coming up soon) and use the new state of the art gymnasium.

Sachin Tendulkar said “We have been holding cricketing camps in London, Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Pune for the past two years and the response we have received from these camps has been overwhelmingly positive. Our dream of launching a full time academy has been realised. Our academy is a place where budding cricketers can enhance their skills and work towards their dreams of playing at the highest level”.

“We are delighted to partner with DY Patil sports academy and Dr Vijay Patil. Having talked with Vijay about the TMGA vision and our shared passion for sport it was clear that this was a fantastic partnership and one we should both pursue. I am sure that this academy will produce some promising players who will make our country proud both on and off the field.”
