Connor Knapp

Connor confesses to coming to sports late and joined Staplehurst aged 12. Despite that, his love of cricket soon developed and that passion helped him rise through the ranks of juniors and, at 16, into open-age cricket.

 

He didn’t need much persuasion to sign up for a Coach Support Worker course at the Club. He was part of the inaugural launch of All Stars Cricket. That progression saw him qualify as a Level 2 coach in 2018.

 

Connor is the youngest and least experienced member but brings a youthful, enthusiastic approach and a ‘can do’ attitude to the Weald Coaching team. He has a passion for imparting knowledge to young players and seeing them grow into cricketers.

 

And as a qualified accountant he also brings much needed financial nous to the venture!
