ABOUT ME
Jodie hicks - founder & coach
With over nine years of experience as a professional dual athlete, I have competed at the highest levels in both cricket and Australian Rules Football. Currently representing Richmond in the AFLW, my journey has included both the achievements of playing at an elite level and the challenges that come with it, from setbacks to career transitions.
​
In 2020, I stepped away from professional sport for a year to deepen my understanding of performance, technique, and motivation. This reinforced how small but significant technical adjustments can have a huge impact on skill development and overall gameplay.
​
My coaching is designed to help athletes sharpen their skills, refine technique, and take their game to the next level. Whether it’s perfecting kicking accuracy, improving ball control, or enhancing overall gameplay, my sessions provide the technical expertise and tailored guidance needed to excel.
​
By focusing on the details that make a difference—efficient movement, precision, and decision-making under pressure—I help athletes develop the skills and confidence to perform at their best in their chosen sport.
