About MAX Sports

Built by people who've played the game.

MAX Sports isn't a franchise or a side hustle. It's a cricket club built by a man who has spent his life with a ball in his hand — and wants the next generation to fall for the game the way he did.

Why we exist

One club. Everything cricket.

We started MAX with a simple frustration: too many young players never get a real game to grow in. Endless drills, no match, no feedback, no path. So we built the opposite — grounds you can actually book, events run properly, gear you can trust, and coaching led by someone who has been there.

Whether you're a parent looking for a safe, structured place for your child, a company planning a day your team will remember, or a player who wants to get seriously good — you're in the right place.

Coach Zaheer Maqsood

Coached by the real thing

Meet Coach Zaheer Maqsood.

Former UAE International

Zaheer came up as a leg-spinner through a hard domestic game — a craft that rewards patience, courage and a sharp cricket brain. But ask the parents at MAX and they'll tell you the same thing: he's a complete coach.

He coaches batting, bowling and fielding with the same care. He's turned nervous beginners into genuine quick bowlers, and quiet kids into players who walk out to bat with their heads up. He'll tell a player exactly what they're great at, and exactly what to work on next — warmly, and by name.

In his words

What he tells every player.

Six things you'll hear on a MAX ground — from a coach who means them.

I don't coach kids to win Saturday. I coach them to last.

Every player has a weapon. My job is to find it.

Spin isn't in the wrist. It's in the patience.

Pressure is just proof you're somewhere that matters.

Bowl the ball you're afraid to bowl. That's where the wickets are.

What we believe

How we do things.

01

Real games over endless drills

You get better by playing, under pressure, with something on the line. We build that in from day one.

02

Honesty is kindness

We tell players the truth about where they are — warmly, clearly, and with a plan to improve.

03

Everyone is known by name

No conveyor belt. Every player, every parent, every team is a person to us — not a booking.

04

The game should be joyful

Discipline and fun aren't opposites. The players who love it are the ones who stay — and go furthest.
