3. Below School Year 5

• For any youth players in School Years 1 to 5 who have not played hard ball cricket, then the best options are All Stars (year 1 to 3) and Dynamos (year 4 to 6)

4. New Players and Equipment

• New players are welcome to attend and should drop an email to Jason Barnes to advise of planned attendance for the first week, to ensure we have capacity to operate safely.
• Players need to wear trainers and bring any batting equipment (bat, gloves, pads, box, etc.) they have. I would expect all players to have their own box. These can be purchased from most sports shops. In addition it is advisable that each player wear ‘cricket pants’ or briefs as boxers are not practical when batting with a box.
