Gary Stead has signed back on with New Zealand Cricket after accepting a high performance coaching role.<\/p>\n

It comes after Stead stood down<\/a> from his role as Black Caps head coach in June, after a successful eight-year stint at the helm.<\/p>\n

In his new role, he’ll be tasked with supporting player and coach development, as well as high performance programmes.<\/p>\n

NZC’s chief high performance officer Daryl Gibson said the organisation was delighted to secure Stead’s services.<\/p>\n

“Gary’s knowledge and experience in cricket are considerable and the fact he’s still passionate and motivated to give back to the game in this country speaks volumes about his character.”<\/p>\n

Stead will work with players and coaches on average three days a week, and is also able to work outside of NZC – allowing him to fulfil part-time roles like his recent appointment assisting Indian domestic side Andra in their four-day competition. <\/p>\n

Most recently, he’s been providing interim support to Otago Cricket<\/a> as well as being involved in a New Zealand Cricket under-19 camp.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m still passionate about coaching and trying to help people learn and improve. If I can pass on some of my skills and experiences to the wider cricket network and in turn help the Black Caps and White Ferns win on the world stage – than that would be really satisfying,” he said.<\/p>\n
