Chatswood in2Cricket Centre
Dear Fellow Cricketers,
Registration 2010/11
With the start of the cricket season only two months away, it is time for boys and girls aged 5-8 years to register their interest in joining the Chatswood in2Cricket Centre’s Programme for the 2010/11 Season.
You will need to complete the online registration form below to join the centre. If you have not played at the Chatswood in2Cricket centre before, you will need to attach a copy of the birth certificate of the relevant player.
In the past, the CHATSWOOD in2CRICKET Program proved most popular and we look forward to the coming season with a great deal of enthusiasm. The general aim of our Centre is for all players to have the opportunity to participate, learn as much as possible about how to play the great game of cricket and, most importantly, to have fun while doing it. Cricket is more than just a game it’s a way of life!
The in2Cricket program is parent run and designed to identify and develop not just future players but also administrators and support staff to run the game in the future.
So, do not delay your registration and sign up now!
Program Details
1. The program runs over fifteen (15) Saturday mornings at Beauchamp Park, Nicholson St, Chatswood from 16 October until 11 December 2010 and following the school holidays, from 29 January until 05 March 2009.
2. Each session lasts 90 minutes from 8 - 9.30am on the above Saturday mornings.
3. The players are divided into “teams” of about ten players each. They practise their cricketing skills during the first half of the session and, following a drinks break, play a modified game during the second half of the session.
4. There are four skills stations set up for batting, bowling, fielding and ball skills. Each team spends about ten minutes at each location before moving on to the next station. While the emphasis is on having fun, the players are importantly improving their respective cricket skills in a safe and secure environment under the supervision of competent coaches.
5. All equipment necessary is provided. The normal school footwear should be worn with a hat and sunscreen for protection from the sun plus the special in2Cricket Centre shirt and pants which must be purchased. A drink for consumption at the mid session break is advisable.
6. As all communication will be conducted by Internet, it is important that each family provides an active email address which should be regularly checked for messages. A regular electronic newsletter will be circulated with useful information and pertinent cricketing news.
7. Milo in2Cricket is a national programme run by Cricket Australia in all States to introduce the national pastime to Aussie kids. The current programme also actively seeks to increase the participation of girls plus players from Indigenous and Multi-ethnic communities in the great game of cricket. http://cricket.com.au/default.aspx?s=in2cricket
