MARK MCINNES

Mark McInnes has played the great game of cricket for over 20 years and has accumulated a large amount of knowledge and experience

His playing career included 10 seasons with Manly-Warringah District Cricket Club 1st and 2nd grade sides. This contributed to him gaining selection in various representative teams including the NSW Blues Squad, NSW 2nd XI, NSW Colts, the Commonwealth Bank Cricket Academy, NSW Country and Australian Country.

He has been a qualified cricket coach since 1998. Over many summers Mark has shared his expertise, knowledge and passion for cricket with players of all ages and abilities. He is very professional and is able to communicate the game of cricket to elite players and beginners alike.

Mark is a specialist spin bowling coach. His passion for the game comes through when he is coaching young spin bowlers. As a player he successfully bowled leg spin for more than 15 years. This gives Mark the background and experience to offer plenty to spin bowlers as he has been through it himself and knows the glory and despair of a spin bowler.
