About Us
A good coach can change a game. A great coach can change a life.
Professional Cricketer to Founder of 3Cricket
Born in London and now based in Singapore, my name is Jason de la Peña. A former Gloucestershire, Surrey, Worcestershire, England U19/23 fast bowling all-rounder & qualified England & Wales Cricket Board Level III coach. From the age of 7, Cricket was my passion and I feel privileged to have spent 13 years playing professionally & coaching in England, Australia and South Africa.
The vision for “3Cricket” was borne out of the desire to truly build on the potential & holistic development of each child. We’re also fully invested in Women’s Cricket. Key to 3Cricket’s ethos is highly qualified, experienced & empathetic coaches. We offer ECB accredited programs, matches, overseas tours & tie-ups with academies abroad. 3Cricket also provides University Pathways as an opportunity for students to continue their passion for Cricket, further hone their talents & enjoy the life lessons that this great game provides.
Our Coaching
Philosophy
At 3C a positive learning environment & having fun is at the core of all our sessions. Our classes are interactive and questions are welcome. With ECB accredited programs we ensure that students learn every aspect of the game. The feedback & progress of the child is transparent to the parents & schools via digital report cards. The sessions are intense learning experiences, encouraging a respectful passion for the game and a desire to learn more
