Hello & Welcome to my Website!

I’m Paul Felton, a Human Movement specialist, a Doctor of Sports Biomechanics, and the owner of the ‘The Cricket Biomechanist’.

I have a passion for, and over 15 years experience in, researching and applying biomechanics to improve individual performance and injury risk of movements within cricket.

I’ll help you make better technique interventions

My mentoring approach focuses on helping you grow as a coach by deepening your understanding of movement and biomechanics.

It’s not just about telling you WHAT and HOW to correct technique but about building your knowledge and confidence to make clear and effective interventions which support your players development.

We’ll explore the WHY behind movement patterns seen in your daily practice so you can coach with more precision, consistency, and impact.

I’ll support you, challenge your thinking, and help you become the technique coach you want to be.

What can I help you with?

  • Getting to grips with biomechanics
    Simplify the fundamentals and latest science so you can apply it in practice
  • Linking technique with performance and injury outcomes
    Understand how movement patterns affect outcomes and risk so your coaching can support performance and lower injury risk
  • Understanding individuality (including bowling legality)
    Identify the limiting factors on a players movements patterns to help understand their technique and unlock improvement

How can you work with me?
