When and Where

The season typically starts on the Friday or first Saturday after Labour Weekend and finishes on the last Saturday in March. The season breaks during the Christmas school holidays. ​The Auckland Cricket Playing Dates can be found on their website.

 

Teams in Girls U9 will play in an Inter-Club Competition which will be scheduled in Eastern and Central Zoned areas.

 

Teams in Girls U11-U16 will play against other teams in Auckland Cricket Association (ACA). Games are scheduled home and away across the city. When playing a 'home' game ACA will schedule the match as close to AUCC as possible.

 

Teams are traditionally expected to practice once a week for 45-60 minutes. The Club is reliant on volunteer support to coach and manage these teams.
