In their last year at intermediate school our Year 8 players finish their club cricket in December before they head off to their respective high schools, some of the players have been with the club for 7 years starting out at our KVS Friday Night junior cricket at Burnside Park until transitioning into Saturday morning cricket with Christchurch Junior Cricket Association.

Ben first came our club in 2018 as a referral from UC Sport where he was studying a sports coaching degree and we asked for some video feedback support. This has been in an entirely voluntary capacity.

This season we have two Year 4 teams playing in Saturday Morning CJCA competitions and this the first time that they will be representing the club against other clubs and teams and will be wearing white pants or shorts, team shirt and their first playing cap.
This season the club will be entering a team in the CJCA Year 7 premier grade competition which plays on a Saturday afternoon starting at 12.30pm. This cricket is 9 a-side and the club will be selecting a team for this. There will also be 2 Morning Year 7 Teams.
Cricket has been my passion since childhood days. No matter which team played, I would sit for hours in front of the television set listening to commentary intently and watching the gentleman’s game. I loved all formats of the game. With time, my love for cricket grew so much that I wouldn’t even change uniforms and go play tennis ball cricket right after school with my street friends.
