Former empire and Barbados player Darnley Boxill is getting an opportunity to improve his skills as a coach and rub shoulders with some of the greats of cricket.

Boxill, coach of the CHIC Combined Schools South cricket team, will be attending the Cricket Alive International Cricket Conference in Birmingham, England, on Monday and Tuesday, thanks to the sponsorship of Caribbean Home Insurance.

Former Test players Bob Woolmer, Sir Richard Hadlee, Clive Rice and Terry Jenner will make up the panel of specialists at the conference which will have seminars and practical demonstrations. It is being organised by the English and Welsh Cricket Board.

``As a coach, I follow what is going on in the international scene and the course was mentioned in the International Cricket Magazine. It was superb because of the content and it brought together some of the most successful people in cricket,'' said Boxill.
