Gary Kirsten’s Post-Cricket Venture: Luxury Living, Sports, and Education

Gary Kirsten, former coach of the Indian cricket team, joins forces with Russel Symcox in a new project involving luxury villas in Goa. This venture marks a significant shift for Kirsten after a long career in cricket. The Cricket Front Villas project, developed by Yugen Infra, promises a high-end lifestyle with world-class educational and sports infrastructure. The villas will be located near Goa’s MOPA airport, and the complex will feature cricket coaching led by Kirsten and Symcox, in addition to golf courses and facilities for multiple sports. A crucial element is the integration of a school which will focus on the holistic development of children, combining academics and sports. Kirsten aims to bring South African expertise to education and sports. The project aims to equip children with skills applicable across all areas of life, including academics and sports, inspired by the belief that principles from sports can be applied in business and education. Kirsten and Symcox are confident about the project’s success and underscore the value of incorporating sports into education to build character and instill essential life skills. Kirsten focuses on leadership, dedication, and commitment, emphasizing that effort and discipline are crucial for success.
