·
Daniel Marsic Selector and PSB "Development" Coach
·

Grade convenors from each club will be asked to nominate
boys who are in Year 7 and Year 8 to be put forward for
trials for the PSB A and Development teams. These
nominations need to be submitted to EDCA by 20th
October.
EDCA is looking for around 43 nominations for this
school year group (approx. Parnell 17, University 17,
Grafton 9). While not totally strict, nomination numbers
have been pro-rated according to the number of
registered members each club has at this age
level. Clubs are charged a pro-rata amount based on
their number of trial nominations for the overall cost
of providing coaches etc for the tournaments. Last
year, for example, clubs were levied a total of $6,150-
which was split amongst the three clubs according to how
many trial nominations they each submitted across the
age groups.
The following letter will be sent to the nominated
trialists:
EDCA SELECTION PROCESS
Primary School Boys (PSB)
The Eastern District Cricket Association selects 2.5
teams for the PSB Auckland Regional Tournament, held on
27-31 December. The players chosen will play
against teams from the Western, Central, Manukau and
North Harbour Districts, and an Auckland U.15 Girls
team.
The selection process consists of a net trial for 43
players nominated by their Clubs, followed by 2 trial
games involving approximately 32 players, from which 2.5
teams of 12 players are selected. There are also 2 non
travelling reserves named who are expected to take a
full part in team preparations as decided by the team
coaches.
At this level of representation players are selected
primarily on specialist skills, the mix of which is
determined by the selectors for each team. While players
may be regarded as all-rounders for their club or school
team, they may be selected as a top or middle order
batsman, bowler or wicketkeeper for the tournament. It
would be reasonable for a player selected as a bowler,
for instance, to expect 5 overs each game, with the
likelihood of bowling more should form and circumstance
warrant it.
This year the selection process is scheduled as
follows:
-
These players are invited to an open wicket trial, scheduled
to take place on Sunday 7 Nov. at Sacred
Heart College 8.30am-2.00pm. Please arrive at
8:30am. (Wet weather > indoor
nets GUCC)
-
A squad of 32 will be selected to play a
trial match v North Harbour on Sunday 14 Nov
at Eastdale Reserve, 9am - 4:30pm (50 over format).
-
A squad of 26 will be selected to play in shadow A
and B teams game on Sunday 21 Nov. against
teams from Manakau; venue Lloyd Elsmore. Arrive
9:30am for 10am start (40 over format)
-
The teams are scheduled to be named by 29
Nov.
-
Capping at PCC’s new indoor facility on Thursday 2nd
Dec, 6.00-7.30pm.
-
The selectors will monitor form in club and school
play through until the teams are named and also take
account of each player’s attitude, enthusiasm and
commitment. Last season’s performances will also be
taken into account.
Please confirm your availability to participate in
the trials and the tournament, if selected, to your club
grade coordinator by 27th October.
