THE AUCKLAND ACES ARE going back to eden park #2
It's the end of an era - the Aces have payed their last game at CMP and wil be returning to the No. 2 Oval at Eden Park for the 2012-13 season. It's been great hosting them at our place for the last 3 years - but all good things must come to an end.
In recognition of our Club's support, Mark Cameron, Auckland Cricket CEO, presented a framed signed Aces HRV T20 shirt to AUCC at our Senior Prizegiving event in April. Thanks ACA - it's a great centrepiece for the display in our clubrooms to commemorate the Aces time at Colin Maiden Park.
We wish the Aces all the best back at their traditional home.

About the Club
At the Auckland University Cricket Club you will find a Club built on over 100 years of history and tradition that caters for all kinds of people, young and old, big and small, shy or bold.
Attitude, enthusiasm, loyalty, a willingness to learn new skills and being part of the team, both on and off the field, are what really count at University.
Winning is important, or at least playing to win is, but success at University is not necessarily winning. Success is to do with the manner in which the game is played, win or lose.
Cricket is one of those games where a player can obtain satisfaction from many aspects of the game without necessarily being in a winning team or being a star player.
An important catch which rids the opposition of its best batsman, a magnificent stop which prevents a boundary, a brief not-out innings which saves a match: all these can bring a glow to the team as a whole.
There is a home at AUCC for everyone.
Cricket is primarily a team game, however, and although individuals may play major roles in winning a match, it is the combined efforts of the whole team which decides the outcome .... this team philosophy underpins everything we stand for at the Auckland University Cricket Club.
To everybody associated with University Cricket ... enjoy our fine facilities at Colin Maiden Park, remember you are representing a proud Club with over 100 years of history, uphold the spirit and traditions of the game we love and - most importantly - have fun and enjoy the game.
