1 in 4 junior fast bowlers suffer a serious lumbar bone stress injury (LBSI) — most caused by sudden spikes in bowling workload that could have been caught early. BowlSafe tracks every ball bowled and warns coaches before it happens. BowlSafe is the dedicated bowling load management app for cricket coaches, clubs, schools, and players. Built around the publicly published workload guidelines from Cricket Australia, the ECB, and New Zealand Cricket, BowlSafe takes the guesswork out of managing fast bowler workloads — so you can protect players before injuries happen. LBSI is the most common serious injury in cricket, particularly in junior fast bowlers aged 14–19. BowlSafe alerts coaches the moment a player approaches their safe limit. BUILT ON SCIENCE BowlSafe uses the Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio (ACWR) — the same sports science method used by professional cricket programs worldwide. Every session is tracked with RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) and duration to calculate Session Load in Arbitrary Units (AU). An 8-week rolling ACWR trend chart shows exactly where each bowler sits — and next week's recommended ball count is calculated automatically.
