The Cricketers’ Club of New South Wales is one of the leading “social” cricket Clubs in New South Wales. The Club arranged 11 ‘social’ fixtures last season, some on Sundays and some midweek. The number of games have been reduced this season because of Covid and the difficulties of travelling across State borders though we hope to pick up a few more fixtures (e.g. v the Army and Molonglo) as the season progresses.
These games are an important part of the Club’s cricket program and enable occasional players to mix with players from our regular C&S/Masters/Classics sides in serious competitive games outside the confines of a formal league competition. Standards and age varies but in general terms the standard is equivalent to that of our C&S and Masters games, sometimes slightly higher, sometimes lower. Nearly 50 people played in these games for CCNSW last season.
Almost all games are played on turf wickets. Grounds vary from international venues like the SCG or Bradman Oval, Bowral, to small country grounds.
There is no overall captain of our social sides. Match Managers are appointed for each game and you are encouraged to apply directly to the individual match manager if you want to play; do not hang back.
