David Moore believes the entire structure of cricket on the Island must be overhauled if Bermuda are to ever compete on the international stage.The Bermuda head coach got his first look at the results of the Island’s much-heralded development programme during last week’s ICC Americas tournament in Florida.Once again Bermuda managed to record victories over the likes of Cayman Islands, Bahamas and Argentina, who they thumped by 10 wickets on Saturday, while crashing to heavy defeats against Canada and USA.Despite the obvious talent in the side, the familiar failings that have plagued national teams of all ages in the past, such as being unable to bat for 50 overs, were again on display for all to see.However, Moore doesn’t entirely blame the players for the unsuccessful week, pointing to a coaching system that has singularly failed to instil the proper disciplines and approaches necessary to perform at international level.“Change has got to start from the under-11s and under-13s up,” said Moore. “From what I have seen on this tour, and with the senior team, they (the players) either haven’t be taught in the past, or they’re not learning from club cricket, the skills that are needed to perform at the highest level. Even the basic skills.“You’ve got to blame the system, it needs to improve. We’ve at least had a chance to review the systems now, and now it has to change.”There is a suspicion that the development programme in the past has focused, to the detriment of the overall development of the players, on preparing for individual tours, such as the Garfield Sobers Tournaments that Bermuda’s youth teams regularly attend.Changing that culture, alongside instilling the understanding that the elite programme is ultimately geared towards the senior national team, will be just part of the new system.“The whole focus of the elite programme is to prepare players to eventually play for the national team,” said Moore. “We’ve got to have strong and solid development programmes that run all through the winter, developing skill, and then if a tournament falls in between some of these programmes that’s fine.“The first one to be reviewed after this performance is the under-19s touring Barbados in the Garfield Sobers Tournament. Clearly, going on that tour is not achieveing the objectives and outcome that Bermuda Cricket Board want from a development programme.”It isn’t just the Under-19s that have struggled. The Under-13s lost to Anquilla, an Island of little more than 10,000 inhabitants, in the Sir Garfield Sobers tournament in St Kitts last summer. It is a trip they might not be making again.“Every tour has to be significant for the development of cricket, not just to tour for tour’s sake,” said Moore. “The sorts of games that have been played by this team in the past have clearly not developed the skill level that is required to participate in International cricket.”Change won’t just come to the system, but to the players as well, an elite programme –requires everyone from the –under-11s up to adhere to the same strict disciplines.That means, as Moore (pictured) has shown on several occasions, that total commitment to the cause, plus a –willingness to do whatever is asked will be considered just as important as skill.Young players such as Deunte –Darrell and Winton –Woodley have already discovered that to their cost.The pair weren’t selected for last week’s tournament because they have been suspended –following an incident in –Barbados last summer.Similarly, others were left out because they failed to turn up to training, or, in the case of Tre Govia, had opted to play football instead.“Once again it’s not only about how people handle themselves on the field, but how they handle themselves off it,” said Moore.“The disciplines on the field have to be replicated by the disciplines off the field, and if you don’t have those, you’re not going to.....there’s no magic cricket fairy that comes and taps you on the head the minute you walk across the white line and says ‘ok, you’re going to play well today’.“It’s all about hard work and commitment and that sort of stuff, and if people can’t come to grips with that, then they’re not going to play cricket at an elite level, for any period of time.“If we keep going the way we’re going then we’re not going to get any better, we must make change to get better, and if don’t make change we’re actually going to go backwards.”
