What Is Online Mentoring?
Ongoing access to Tom Scollay, supporting your development across the 6 Pillars of Success, with guidance most cricketers never receive through:
- Technical Analysis
- Tactical and Game Strategy Development
- Match Reviews & Performance Reflection
- Mental & Emotional Skill Development
- Clear Development Direction
- Ongoing Support Between Sessions
- Standards, Habits & Character Development
More Than Coaching
Coaching tells you what to work on and is usually one way communication.
Ongoing mentoring helps you understand:
1. Who you are as an athlete
2. How you perform at your best and why
3. What actually matters in the role that you are playing in your team(s)
4. How to prepare, compete & review like elite players do
Most importantly, mentoring doesn’t disappear when things get hard.
And it doesn’t always look for a technical fix as that’s often not the answer.
When you have an experienced mentor who stays connected to your journey, week to week, month to month, progress accelerates in ways short-term coaching never can.
You stop guessing. You stop chasing fixes. You start making better decisions under pressure.
The Reality Most Ambitious Cricketers Face
Most ambitious cricketers don’t fall short because they lack skills or ability
They fall short because they:
- Train well but can’t consistently transfer it to matches
- Train hard but don’t always train smart and ensure they stack their learnings from every match and training session
- Don’t understand why they perform well one game and poorly the next
- Rely on a club or pathway coach who don’t REALLY care about them
- Have no experienced mentor to talk to when form dips, confidence drops, they’re feeling unsure about something or pressure rises
The higher the level you progress to, the smaller the margins between being successful and not quite ‘making it’.
Skills gets you noticed.
Clarity, decision-making, mindset and emotional control gets you performing at your best, consistently
That’s where long-term mentoring changes everything.

Follow In Jake’s Footsteps
Jake Weatherald, now an Ashes-winning Test opening batsman for Australia, first reached out to Cricket Mentoring in 2021 at a time when his career was at a crossroads. Despite his talent, he was struggling with confidence and consistency at the professional level and felt lost in his game. By working with Tom Scollay, Jake rebuilt his belief, refined his approach, and developed the clarity needed to perform under pressure. That transformation took him from an uncertain professional cricketer to one of Australia’s premier openers, playing in Ashes Test victories and establishing himself at the highest level of the game.
The 6 Pillars Of Success
So many young athletes think the answer to their problem is to train harder or hit more balls. But that’s not always the case.
At Cricket Mentoring, we believe that to be successful and consistently perform well, athletes MUST be working on themselves in these 6 key areas:
With Online Mentoring We Will Help You…

- Build routines that allow you to be present and focus under pressure
- Manage thoughts and emotions when it matters most
- Learn how elite players think between balls, overs and innings
Accelerate Your Development
- Personalised guidance based on you, not generic frameworks
- Honest feedback when you need it
