Mentor Programme
GMHPA Mentorship Programme and more specifically Graham McMillan now offers YOU the budding professional cricketer the unique experience of being able to be mentored, guided, influenced, and tutored – as you make your way along your own path towards professional and international playing success. Been involved with junior cricket from school to provincial, regionally as part of the Africa Cricket Association and Internationally as part of the ICC Graham McMillan has had first-hand experience of dealing with what it really takes to ‘bridge the gap’ between amateur sport and professional sport – and how to guide the budding cricketer from their cricket start through to actualising to the best cricketer they can be.
The Mentorship Program (MP) is not too specific in its output, as each and every client we deal with is a different character, and each and every one of you has very different needs in terms of being guided and mentored towards the top ranks. There are however some key principles and operational plans which remain standard for all of our clients who range from 14yr olds to 28yrs olds as follows.
more than coaching
We are Johannesburg-based cricket coaches and mentors that help individuals (cricketers, coaches, and parents) and groups (clubs, schools and academies) around the world develop themselves in all of ‘The Pillars of Success’.
The ‘Sharing Plan’ option entitles you two (2) ‘face to face’ (or Skype) interactions per month with your ‘Cricket Mentor’. It further entitles you to two (2) pre-arranged incoming telephonic calls per month (max 30 min), with reasonable yet limited whatsapp interaction.
The ‘Interaction Plan’ option entitles you to one (1) ‘face to face’ (or Skype) interaction per week with your ‘Cricket Mentor’. It further entitles you to interact with the Mentor on one (1) further occasion either via a pre-arranged incoming telephonic call or skype call for (max 30 min) – with reasonable open whatsapp communication being openly available.
The ‘Open Plan’ option entitles you to one (1) ‘face to face’ (or Skype) interaction per week with the ‘Cricket Mentor’. It further entitles you to interact openly with the Mentor with as many reasonable interactions as the client requires or needs during that month – by means of whatsapp communication or pre-planned incoming telephonic calls directly to the Mentor. Lastly, the ‘Open Plan’ permits one (1) extra ‘face to face’ (or Skype) session per month at no extra charge if so advised by the Mentor. This extra session is also able to be used by you the ‘client’ if so desired and the cricket mentor agrees – as an interaction with your coach, agent or any family member etc.

Take the
Assessment
Cricket Mentor have identified that there are so many cricketers who wish to be considered as an Overseas Cricket Pro or as an Amateur Cricketer in the UK or in many other countries around the world. Players are signing up on mass with Agents and they are also speaking directly to Clubs. Realistically both Agents and Clubs have almost ZERO real knowledge of the players real cricketing ability, their cricket awareness levels & intellect or even their face to face personality – other than a CV prepared by the player themselves. As such, Clubs and Agents are being thrown in the deep end and are having to make key decisions on their Clubs or Teams future Overseas Professionals, Coaches or Amateurs with little or no real knowledge.
This is where Cricket Mentor comes in, as we in South Africa will assess a wide range of factors for you about the player. We will see the player in person and shall send the appropriate client and the player a full assessment once completed. Players themselves can also be assessed, so as to immediately add the assessment document to their CV which will give them the edge.
