Dave was appointed as the Head Coach to the Kent Women going into the 2020 season.

He had been involved with Kent for two seasons prior, and has worked at all stages of the girls’ pathway in this time at the Club, including assisting former Lead Coach Mark Dekker with the Championship-winning Women’s Squad in 2019.

A young and ambitious coach, Bexley-born Hathrill has been with Kent Cricket since the summer of 2018, leading the U13 Girls taking on the U17 Girls Age Group Squad.

In addition, he has played a big role within his native Bexley Area Programme, and has set up a joint coaching business with a specific focus on girls’ development.

Hathrill has also taken a role within Kent Cricket, managing the ECB Female Cluster Club programme in the county: a programme designed to create cricket networks of support to enable the growth of female cricket clubs.

Speaking about becoming Head Coach in November 2019, Hathrill said: “I’m delighted to have the opportunity to lead Kent Women into the 2020 season, with exciting new opportunities for the women’s game coming in the new year.

“To work with a squad that were crowned County Champions in 2019 is a fantastic opportunity for me to work alongside one of the best women’s teams in the country, as well as laying down new foundations to keep Kent at the forefront of the game.”
