Boonie back in school with teacher Chappell

David Boon, who scored 7422 runs in 107 Tests in an illustrious international career, is one of 29 people taking part in the Australian Cricket Board's (ACB) Level III Coaching Course at Caulfield Grammar School from 11 - 15 April 2000.

Greg Chappell, who scored 7110 runs in 87 Tests and was recently named in the ACB's Test Team of the Century, will run lectures and conduct workshops with Victorian Bushrangers coach John Scholes and Australian women's coach John Harmer.

Joining Boon as 'students' are Darren Berry (Victorian Bushrangers), Dene Hills (Tasmanian Tigers) and Women's Cricket Australia representatives Kerry Marshall and Jodie Davis.

Running annually since 1973, the ACB Level III Coaching Course is designed for senior club coaching directors and coaches of senior or junior representative teams and covers all aspects of the game.

Accredited with the Australian Coaching Council, the Level III course is internationally recognised and is the highest qualification a coach can achieve in Australia. Current national team coach John Buchanan is one of those who has previously undertaken the course.
