'I have worked closely with David on both batting and wicket keeping aspects of my game.
His communication,work ethic and willingness to match my enthusiasm for training and striving to improve was second to none.We worked on some great stuff in the build up to my season back home and definitely have seen the benefits over the last couple years.His knowledge of not just the league structure/county competition in England but also the grade/district competition in Australia is fantastic, which would benefit anyone wanting to improve their game.I would highly recommend any cricketer to get into touch with David. He has helped my game,I'm sure he will have some great input into yours!!!'

'David Alleyne from Future Stars Cricket Australia took a specialist winter coaching session with our wicketkeepers from our Pathways squad this year. David has an obvious passion and level of enthusiasm for wicketkeeping and was fantastic with the Pathways boys, running them through a series of warm up activities as well as some really practical drills and activities throughout the session. The squad was engaged the whole time with David and listened intently and really took on David’s messages. I know they got a huge amount out of the session and have taken it away to work on through their pre-season and in season wicketkeeping work. Thanks David.'

'David came to our club to run a specialist wicketkeeping session with 3 young keepers -aged under 16, but all playing senior cricket. So often wicket keepers are just used in fielding drills as someone to catch and distribute the ball, so a specifically designed wicket keeping session was something that each of them enjoyed and took plenty away from. They were all very impressed by the one-on-one time you were able to spend with them to work on their body position, glove work and overall technique.'
