She has travelled to Fiji and Samoa with CWOB and has coached the Victoria State Under 16 girls team for the last two years.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cI\u2019m thrilled to have been offered an internship this year with Cricket Japan. Travelling to Japan will be a whole new experience for me, but something that I am very much looking forward to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arriving a week later will be Ben Brookes from the MCC Young Cricketers, coming as part of a new partnership with Sano City Council which previously brought Joe Barratt to Japan in 2016.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-6089\" src=\"https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/cricket.or.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Ben-Sachin.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Also aged 20, Ben is part of a cricket playing family and hopes to forge a successful career in the sport. He said: \u201cIt has been fantastic to hear about the challenges about working in a different country and language, and how the experience helped Joe to learn a lot about himself. I have also been told about how welcoming all the Japanese people are and how hard everyone works to make cricket successful. This excites me and makes me want to be a part of something special!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Like Maddi, Ben will predominantly be working in schools and clubs while also helping with some National Team activities and competition Finals. We hope both have a great time and reiterate our thanks to the respective organisations for finding such outstanding candidates to come and work with the JCA.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the Japan Cricket Association we are fortunate to regularly have guests from abroad working alongside us to help improve cricket in Japan.
