What the heck happened to harrowdrive.com on Wednesday 25th June 2008?

Things got better:

• More articles with more in-depth content.
• Regular audio and video posts.
• An even bigger community of like minded cricketers.
• Customised information for coaches and players.

Did I mention it's staying free? So let's get this right. More, better, free content?

I'll bet you are thinking there is a catch here?

Well, yes and no.

You see, I'm working on the site full time. As my family tell me that food, rent and the electric bill is not free I have joined forces with the guys at miSport to help make this happen. I’m working with them as the Director of Coaching under the name miCricketCoach

Put simply, Harrowdrive and miSport have merged so I can do more for you. Pretty exciting huh?

You don't have to do a thing

What does this mean you have to do? Nothing.

The site has changed name but you still get the content and it still comes from me. We have upgraded the whole site and moved the archive and latest articles to the new home here. It's a brand spanking new site with a great design. Feel free to have a look around, there is loads to do on there (like join the forum, or subscribe to the podcast).

If you get updates via email or RSS you still get them exactly as you did. The emails have had a facelift but are still themed the same: Ways to help you play better cricket. That's about it.

Still sounds good, right?

Any questions or worries?

You might have questions about the change. If you do I want you to feel free to contact me using either my old or new contact details.They will both work for a while yet.

Here are some questions answered that you may already have:

Who are miSport anyway?

Just like me, miSport started up just a couple of years ago and just like Harrowdrive, their business is geared to club cricketers. miSport’s product, PitchVision, is a coaching software for Clubs and Schools that makes a 'Hawkeye' style system available to everyone. It's a tool for helping players track their own batting and bowling data and use it to improve their game.

The exciting thing for me is that we both want to pioneer online cricket coaching. It just makes sense to join forces. We are a perfect fit.

Does that mean you are going to try and sell me stuff I don't want?

Not at all. If you think PitchVision is for you I encourage you to look into it in more detail. However apart from the odd tutorial on using PitchVision, the articles are not going to change focus: Helping you improve your cricket.

Will I have to subscribe again to keep getting the emails?

Nope. As a harrowdrive subscriber nothing changes except the name of the email. The only minor thing to look out for is that they will be coming from a different email address which means you might need to check your spam folder and add the new address to you email contacts list.

Are you going to start charging?

No. miCricketCoach will keep doing exactly what you want: Producing regular free articles, advice and loads of other stuff. This whole deal is all about making things better for you because if you're happy I'm getting more readers and helping more people.

Still have questions? Please contact me.

Still not subscribed? What are you waiting for? It's free!
