Testimonials

Unlocking my son’s capabilities and building his confidence on the field

We have been part of the VK Cricket Academy (VKCA) for the past year, and it has been an incredible cricketing journey for my son. The academy offers a perfect balance of practice sessions, matches, and individualized attention from Coach Sravan, who demonstrates exceptional dedication to every player’s growth.

Coach Sravan meticulously identifies each player’s strengths and areas for improvement. His methodical approach and persistent efforts to address weaknesses have been truly transformational for my son’s cricketing skills at this early stage.

What sets VKCA apart is the tailored advice and long-term guidance that Coach Sravan provides to help players excel as they progress through different age groups. For instance, he suggested my son to transition from fast bowling to spin, recognizing his potential in this area. This change has been a game-changer, unlocking my son’s capabilities and building his confidence on the field.

VKCA has not only honed my son’s cricketing abilities but also instilled discipline, focus, and a love for the game. We are grateful for the impact this academy has had on his journey, and we look forward to many more years of growth with VKCA.

Grateful for the wonderful experience my son has

As a parent, I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful experience my son has had since joining VK Cricket Academy (VKCA) a couple of years ago. Initially, he was just exploring his interest in cricket, but over time, I have witnessed remarkable growth in his skills and confidence, all thanks to the dedicated coaching staff at VKCA. The coaches at VKCA are not only knowledgeable and professional but also genuinely passionate about developing young cricketers. My son has made significant improvements in his overall game, and more importantly, he has forged lasting friendships with his teammates. The sense of camaraderie and appreciation for cricket that he has developed is truly heartwarming. VKCA provides numerous opportunities for learning and growth, which has allowed my son to experience the joy that playing cricket brings. I am confident that under the expert guidance of the seasoned coaching team, he will continue to thrive and reach new heights in his cricket journey. I wholeheartedly endorse VKCA to any parent looking for a nurturing environment where their child can learn and improve in cricket. It’s a place where passion for the sport is cultivated, and young players are empowered to achieve their best. Thank you, VKCA, for making such a positive impact on my son’s life!

Thrilled with our experience at VK Cricket Academy

As a father of a 9-year-old boy, I, Santosh, am thrilled with our experience at VK Cricket Academy. From the very beginning, the coaches, Shravan and Narsingh, have been incredibly supportive and attentive to my son’s development. The training sessions are meticulously planned, focusing not only on enhancing skills but also on instilling a deep love for the game.

My son has made significant strides in his batting and bowling techniques, thanks to the personalized coaching he receives. The academy also places a strong emphasis on teamwork and sportsmanship, which has positively influenced my son’s overall character.

What truly distinguishes VK Cricket Academy is the dedication of the coaching staff. Shravan and Narsingh are passionate about cricket and genuinely care about each child’s growth. My son eagerly anticipates every session and has formed wonderful friendships along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend VK Cricket Academy to any parent looking to nurture their child’s cricketing talent.

Parent of a 9 year old

looking for a club that fosters motivation, dedication, discipline, empathy, team spirit and passion, and demands the same from you and your kids then this is the one for you

My son was new to cricket but has been playing baseball for more than a couple of years. He got interested in cricket after watching a whole IPL season with me. I reached out to Coach Sravan to explore the possibilities. The coach and his coaching crew, and assistant coaches were very accommodating.  I was very impressed by the 1:1 attention they were giving to the kids, of different ages. There were kids who were 7 or 8 years old as well as teenagers.
As with many parents, I wanted to push my son as a batsman.  The head coach and the assistant coach evaluated his strengths and improvement areas, identified that he has good natural turn of the ball and genuine bowling action. Also, they asked my son what his preference is and found out that he likes bowling.
Having played street cricket in India as well as organized tournaments in college as well as in clubs in the US, I’m not new to the basics of cricket. I asked him to bowl to me and was surprised to realize the turn my son was getting and how natural his action felt.  The coaches definitely have an eye for identifying what areas your kid will excel at.
In just a couple of months, my son was playing internal games and external tournaments. He was very excited to get those opportunities, and our dinner time was entirely full of him talking about the game, his friends, the coaching drills and so on. The head coach, Mr. Sravan as well as the assistant coaches make it their priority to attend the games.
Just like school, where teachers guide and help our kids prosper but as parents we have to do our part in vesting time, interest and passion, here also the coach consistently reminds us, parents, as what we need to do, what we shouldn’t do and how our presence will help the kids. For kids under 9, the coaching may seem to focus on basics, form, and rhythm. From U9 and above things will start getting serious.
The head coach, Mr. Sravan has always patiently answered my questions with respect to my son’s progress.
I’m very much impressed with the attention that Coach Mr. Sravan gave to us. He gives importance to our dedication, focus, discipline, sense of time and passion. The same that he shows towards the kids and the club. Overall, my impression is that if you are looking for a playful-fool-around club & coaching, this club and the coaches aren’t the right choice. If you are looking for a club that fosters motivation, dedication, discipline, empathy, team spirit and passion, and demands the same from you and your kids then this is the one for you.

looking for a cricket academy, look no further than VKCA

As a parent, I can see the progress my 10-year-old has made since joining VKCA 18 months ago. From the very first day, the coaches made my child feel welcome and part of the cricket family. My child looks forward to every session. The environment is very lively.
The coaching staff is great, featuring an experienced international coach and assistant coaches dedicated to each age group. This ensures that every child receives the appropriate level of guidance and support tailored to their developmental stage.

One of the highlights has been the weekend practice games. These sessions have been instrumental in helping my child understand the nuances of the game.

Additionally, the academy provides opportunities to play bi-lateral external games, which have been fantastic for gaining real match experience against different teams. The coaching sessions and the coaches’ dedication to talking with the kids after practice to prepare for tournaments have been incredibly beneficial.

One of the most impressive aspects is how the coaches help kids transition to the next age group. This experience has prepared my child for the challenges ahead, ensuring a smooth and confident transition.
I am truly grateful to VKCA for their dedication and passion. If you’re looking for a cricket academy, look no further than VKCA.

  I am delighted to share my experience with VKCA cricket academy where my son is currently training. The dedication and passion of the coaching staff, particularly our coach Shravan, have been truly remarkable. From day one, it was evident that the coach believes in each child’s potential and works tirelessly to nurture their talent. The structured training sessions are not only comprehensive but also engaging, ensuring that every player develops their skills effectively. The coach’s commitment to fostering a positive and supportive environment has instilled confidence in my son, allowing him to thrive both on and off the field. The kids also being motivated by the coach to improve their personal skills and being healthy.
    The academy goes above and beyond by organizing numerous practice matches and competitive internal and external games, which are instrumental in enhancing the players’ performance. These opportunities not only allow the kids to apply what they have learned but also teach them valuable lessons in teamwork and sportsmanship. I am genuinely impressed by the level of effort and planning that goes into each session, as well as the coach’s unwavering support for the players’ growth. It is truly a privilege to be part of such an inspiring cricket community, and I wholeheartedly recommend VKCA academy to any parent looking to nurture their child’s cricketing journey.

After I saw my son Vikash’s interest in Cricket, I was looking for an academy that has the vision to take my son to train with a long-term goal. I then luckily found VK Cricket academy and talked to coach Sravan about my expectations.
After hearing his Vision and strategy, I choose to opt for VK Cricket academy for my son’s cricket coaching and I started witnessing the results in a month. Coach Sravan, has a big passion for bringing the kids as professional cricketers. Beyond coaching the game skills, Sravan trains the kids to plan their game, find their strengths, and teaches sportsmanship.
I wish him all the best to succeed in bringing good cricketers.

We moved to Fremont from out of state. Before we even found a rental house, we settled on the Cricket club for our 9 year old. Coach Sravan is friendly and welcoming. Though our kid has not played cricket before, the coach was able to spot the talent right on the first week and moved him to the right level along with a similarly talented group. The coach is fully committed and it shows up in his efforts on / off the field, his ability to run the tournaments etc.

We started for my son at VKCA in mid 2021, right around when Covid rules were getting relaxed. We are so lucky to have found the academy in Fremont. Coach Sravan immediately recognized the talent of my son (then age 9, now 12) and was able to fast track him to hard ball cricket. Sravan started to trust my kid more than what we thought our kid was capable of. Several times throughout the last 3.5 years, Sravan (and the coaching team) has demonstrated the passion and commitment to help all the students. Their commitment and passion is so contagious that we can see the kids exhibit that in the field, practice or games. Sravan personally takes time to focus on each individual student and brings the best of the kids. He cares for their overall health, growth and success which is a welcome sign for any parent. Highly recommend VK Cricket Academy and Coach Sravan for all levels and age groups!
