Devnarain set for second stint with National Academy<\/a>: <\/p>\n

Former South African women\u2019s player and current KZN Coastal\u2019s coach Dinesha Devnarain will link up with the women\u2019s national academy in June as the assistant coach for a second year.<\/p>\n

Devnarain, who is only the eighth woman in South African cricket to get her Level three CSA Coaching Certificate, was the first woman in KwaZulu-Natal to achieve this, and is looking forward to adding more value this year after a year of learning in 2018.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was approached by Cricket SA and asked if I was available and with honour, I agreed,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is hugely rewarding to be selected again for the academy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI learnt a huge amount last year about how to work with other coaches and players from different backgrounds and cultures.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year I want to go in and use what I learnt last year to make an impact on the players on more than just a cricketing level.\u201d<\/p>\n

The former SA Women\u2019s fast bowler will serve as Assistant Coach to Salieg Nackerdien. The Academy is expected to run from the 2nd of June to August this year.<\/p>\n

In the 2018\/19 season, Devnarain\u2019s prowess as a coach was on full display as the KZN Coastal Women finished as log leaders in Pool B of the 2018 CSA Women\u2019s Provincial One-Day Competition.<\/p>\n

Devnarain will be looking to take full advantage of the opportunity to coach the best in the country and said she is looking to make a difference and produce Proteas players. <\/p>\n

\u201cBeing in a position to change lives and make people good people before good cricketers have been one my highlights as a coach,\u201d Devnarain said. \u201cI would love for the ladies to always strive to be better than they were yesterday and to always compete with pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

There will be two players from KwaZulu-Natal that will be at the academy this year. Nondumiso Shangase and Jade de Figuerido, both represent KZN Coastal, are two players Devnarain is excited to see grow.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am looking forward to having Nondumiso and Jade at the academy. <\/p>\n

\u201cThey are both exciting young players and a stint in the academy will be a great way for them to improve their game,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The KZN Women\u2019s team will travel to CSA National Women\u2019s Week which will be held in Bloemfontein next month.<\/p>\n
