"The thing I valued most about working with Elly was the confidence I got from our sessions. This was down to the mental side of coaching Elly provides. We discovered my strongest scoring shots in our sessions, and this has improved my headspace when I walk out to bat."

Founder · Mentality Coach
About Marc
Former U19 World Cup Captain and first-class cricketer. Marc built The Batting Mentality to teach the mental frameworks that turn talent into runs — the layer that sits above technique.
The mental game above all.
"Marc has a passion for coaching and is able to bring out the best in people. He took my son Luke from very much a beginner to a more than useful cricketer with a lifelong love for the game."

"I found Elly's technical coaching excellent — however it was our discussions about how I approach my innings, and analysing where I could improve my game, that pushed me on and resulted in me scoring my first two centuries."

"Marc set my boys on the cricketing path, conveyed real enthusiasm, passion and love for the great game from when they were at junior age. He taught skills that helped them thrive in other sports as well. I would highly recommend Marc as a fantastic coach to any parent for their sons or daughters."
