Sponsorship is more than reaching outcomes. It is more than dollars and cents.
Archibalds and Jaguar are key sponsors of the 2020 Christ’s College cricket programme, but more importantly they are part of our cricket community. Archibalds is our principal sponsor and Jaguar our major sponsor and we are thrilled to have their support, which provides the extra resourcing we need to give our boys the opportunity to strive for excellence. We want to thank Archibalds and Jaguar, for joining our cricket club and for actively supporting our community and our cricket programme.
Welcome to Christ’s College Cricket 2020
Welcome to another season of College cricket. It looks to be a very promising year, as we have increased our numbers from 130 to just over 150. We have over 40 new entrant cricketers in 2020 and our T20 cricket now has four competitive teams. The 1st XI are just back from a very enjoyable Trans-Tasman tournament in Sydney, and our Colts team had a successful week in Hamilton in December, beating the two top-ranked in New Zealand Year 10 cricket teams. Recent Old Boy Nic Lidstone is currently with the New Zealand U19 team in South Africa. As Peter Fulton is leaving us to coach the Black Caps, I am pleased Mike Peacock is able to fill this role. Mike currently works for Sport Canterbury and played a lot of his representative cricket in Australia. Mike will oversee the cricket development programme and trial process at College. He will also be available on Saturdays to talk about your son’s progress as he watches College matches. We still have some work to do to ensure all boys get an equal opportunity to develop and grow their passion for the game. This often comes down to how teams are managed and coached. In 2020 we have increased our coaching and managing stocks and all teams will have two coaches and a manager, which ensures that each Saturday all boys will feel they are catered for and given equal opportunity. I would like to thank all those parents who have offered to help. It is fantastic that a number of you are able to help manage and coach some of the teams. We are now on to the next phase of facilities development, having completed the internal upgrade of the pavilion and the new training block adjacent to the pavilion. Our plan is to put a raised decking area over the concrete pad next to the pavilion, which will give us scope to hold after-match functions and a better view of the number one playing wicket. We would also like to add artificial wickets next to the new training block. We are in the process of asking for council approval of this work. The Friends of Cricket committee represents all our parents and is a conduit for our cricket community into the governance of the sport. It is there to offer support and advice, and I encourage all parents to keep in touch with the committee. You will find contact details of committee members at the back of this manual. It is our goal to engage with all parents and create a positive culture throughout our club. Please feel free to wander over to the cricket pavilion for tea or coffee at any time.
All the best for the season ahead. I look forward to meeting you all over the course of Term 1.
Stephen Dods Master in Charge Cricket

Player Information
Injuries and rehabilitation • If a student has a cricket injury (or any injury), he should see his parent, House matron or guardian in the first instance • A parent, guardian or Housematron shouldmake the initial appointment with a doctor or physiotherapist.MarionMeates is our in-house physiotherapist and I would encourage Christ’s College students to use this service. Marion runs her clinic in the bunker after school on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 1–5.30pm. (Students who have sports injuries are not required to see a doctor first) • If a boy has a serious injury, he should attend the 24-hour emergency or A&E at the hospital. He can then book with Marion for follow-up care if required. If a boy requires immediate treatment, the manager, coach or a staff member will call an ambulance or transport the boy to the closest hospital. Parents, guardians and the boy’s House matron should then be informed • After Marion has diagnosed the problem, she will put together a rehabilitation programme that in many cases our strength and conditioning trainer will oversee. If the injury requires further diagnosis, Marion will refer the boy to a specialist. This will most likely be Dr Andrew Vincent, an Old Boy and orthopaedic specialist, who may be able to accelerate the scanning, diagnosis, care and recovery for our boys • Communication is vital, as an injured player should not continue to train or play unless cleared by Marion, his own physio or other medical professional • At the point of diagnosis,Marion will inform the boy, Housemaster and Kris Miller of the likely back-to- play plan. Contact Marion her on mobile – 021 066 7244, or email – [email protected]
• Once a player has committed to a College cricket side in February, they are committed to that side until the end of the season (December) • Players are expected to attend all team trainings • Players must attend all teammeetings called by the staff manager during the week • Players must train in appropriate training gear, CC shorts or track pants and a white shirt. Correct footwear must always be worn • Players must attend matches in their College blazer and wear it when umpiring • All players must have a CC cricket cap or floppy • On Saturdays, players must always turn out in full whites, unless using approved College one-day tops • All players (including those boys playing T20) must wear a helmet when batting and, if possible, when in close proximity to throw- downs • Training balls are not provided by College. Every College player is responsible for having his own ball for practices • Players must score thematch and when doing so should be next to the scorer from the opposing team.

The spirit of cricket
The spirit of the game involves RESPECT for: • Your opponents • Your own captain and team • The role of the umpires • The game’s traditional values It is against the spirit of the game: • To dispute an umpire’s decision by word, action or gesture • To direct abusive language towards an opponent or umpire • To indulge in cheating or any sharp practice – for example, to appeal knowing that the batsman is not out or to advance towards an umpire in an aggressive manner when appealing Violence There is no place for any act of violence on the field of play. Players Captains and umpires together set the tone for the conduct of a cricket match. Every player is expected to make an important contribution to this.
Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not only within its laws, but also within the spirit of the game. Any action which is seen to abuse this spirit causes injury to the game itself. The major responsibility for ensuring the spirit of fair play rests with the captains. Responsibility of captains The captains are responsible at all times for ensuring that play is conducted within the spirit of the game, as well as within its laws. Prior to the commencement of each match the captain will toss the coin with the opposing captain. Each captain of a College teammust do so in a blazer and cricket whites. instructions by an umpire, or criticises by word or action the decisions of an umpire, or shows dissent, or generally behaves in a manner which might bring the game into disrepute, the umpire concerned shall in the first place report the matter to the other umpire and to the player’s captain, and instruct the latter to take action. Fair and unfair play According to the laws, the umpires are the sole judges of fair and unfair play. The umpires may intervene at any time and it is the responsibility of the captain to take action where required. Umpires are authorised to intervene in cases of: • Time wasting • Damaging the pitch • Dangerous or unfair bowling • Tampering with the ball • Any other action that they consider to be unfair Player’s conduct In the event that any player fails to comply with

Christ’s College Cricket Selection Procedure
Community Trust – Year 9 and 10 The Community Trust side will be selected in October from the Year 9 player pool as assessed by the Year 9 coaches and the MiC. The majority of the side will be made up of the Year 9A team but Year 9B players are eligible and can be selected. This knockout competition runs during Term 4 as a Year 9 and Term 1 as a Year 10. Year 10 teams In general, Year 10 teams flow-on from Year 9 selections. However, there will be instances where movement may take place in some teams. This could be due to any of the following circumstances: • A player has clearly been placed in the wrong team/level – that is, having consistently poor or good performances • A player is new to College and cricket • A player drops out or wants to join a team in Year 10 • A player chooses to play in a lower grade
The following selection procedure is designed to create a level of transparency and fairness for all boys who wish to play cricket for Christ’s College. Note, trial matches are not used in the selection process as these can often be misleading in cricket. Statistics can also create problems when comparing players and will therefore only be used as a guide or indicator. Junior Cricket Boys must play a summer and a winter sport at College. Any boy who elects to play cricket will be placed in a team. It must be stipulated that once a boy has chosen to play cricket and is placed in a team, he is committed to that team until the end of the year. Year 9 teams (new entrants) All Year 9 cricket teams will be selected based on skill analysis determined during the two net/open wicket trials held during Week 1 of Term 1. It should be stressed to players and families during registration and trials that: • Net and open wicket trials provide the only real opportunity for selectors to make judgement on abilities • Previous teams and playing history will be taken into consideration but will not guarantee selection Attendance at our pre-Term 1 camp is encouraged as this does help us to ascertain players’ strengths and weaknesses. Although this is not a selection process for new entrants, it does help us to begin evaluating players. While we do our very best to ensure players are placed in the correct team, the odd aberration may occur for a variety of reasons. Consequently, there is some flexibility for movement in these teams, particularly during Term 1.
16 | Christ’s College Cricket 2020
Senior (Year 11-13) Cricket Timeline of selection process:
December/January • Registration of all senior cricketers for following year • During registration, players will select which grade/ team they would like to play in • Other players will go through the following selection process and it will be assumed these players have aspirations of making the 1st XI and will be given the opportunity to make this side • Summer break – large numbers of players involved in representative cricket, others invited to play friendly matches or be involved in tournaments • Selection XI vs The Willows XI, 10 January 2021 • Final selection meeting, 31 January 2021 • Trans-Tasman Quadrangular, third week of January 2021 • New entrant cricket camp end of January 2021, 9.30am–12.30pm • Cricket trials/matches end of January 2021 Analysis and coach ratings. The information gained from the season will be used to build an overall picture of each player. Other important notes: During the summer months (October–March), cricket commitments must come before any other winter sports activities such as trials, practices etc. If for any reason a player is unable to attend a practice or match, they must inform and gain approval from their teammanager or coach in advance.
October/November • Youth, Social, T20 (9am start) or 3D grade or above (10.30am start) • Players cannot select their own social teams • Players who choose to play youth T20 will be placed in teams based on previous playing history and, where possible, kept in year groups so boys can play with friends • Skills assessment sessions for players intending to play 10.30am grades only. Coaches indicate players to be tracked in Term 4 • Term 4 cricket begins – teams from Term 1 resume. Coaches/managers report notable player performances weekly with MiC. Specific skill tests/ sessions with selected players take place during trainings • Selection meeting with team coaches and Saturday managers to make temporary team placements for the following season
