The conference will encompass the scientific, medical and elite coaching aspects of preparing cricketers for high performance competition in a tightly-packed domestic and international schedule. A key objective of the conference is to improve the integration of science, medicine and technology into practice. The conference is run with the philosophy of sharing information and best practice with a number of sports regarding successes, or otherwise, when applying scientific research and information into the applied high performance sporting environment. To achieve this aim, practitioners, support staff, sport scientists and coaches from other sports are welcome to attend. Naturally there will be a high proportion of delegates in attendance that work in high performance cricket, both in and outside of Australia.
