The Coach Rach Podcast

By: thecoachrachpodcast
  • Summary

  • Although I am a female this is not a podcast dedicated to women in cricket. This is a podcast dedicated to share the stories of those who have worked hard in cricket and have made a difference in some way. The purpose of this podcast was to educate myself on all things cricket and learn from coaches, players and those within the sport. To me, it is more important to showcase those that are doing work behind the scenes and those who have played/coached at the highest level but don't get the recognition that the modern day players are getting now days. As a women who plays, coaches and works within the sport, it is only natural that I am passionate about women's cricket. So there is an element of that in the podcast. It is important to me to highlight that woman's cricket is not a "new" sport and in fact it has been played for over 100 years in Australia. So to highlight this in some of my interviews and to talk to and about the amazing females to play and coach the game is very important to me. This is a passion project for me where I aim to learn as much as I can about the sport and about the different journeys people have taken within cricket. I have had so much fun creating these episodes for you and I hope you get something out of them just like I have.

  • Episode 16 - Sean Carroll
    Jan 31 2021

    Sean Carroll was the Head of Integrity and Security at Cricket Australia.

    In Sean's past life he was a police officer who then persued his passion for sport, and has worked for ADIDAS and the ICC before his  role at Cricket Australia.

    We were both studying our Masters of Sports business and Integrity at Victoria University and had some classes together which is how we met. In 2019 I was very lucky to be in the same Study tour as Sean which is where we first formally met. Although we were in Spain for uni, we spent most of the time talking cricket so obviously I asked him to join me on the podcast.  

    We recorded this episode at the end of November 2020, so at the time you are hearing this, some of these events will be current or have passed.

    Sean has now taken up a new role as Victoria's new racing integrity commissioner.
