POLICY & PROCESS
Selection is based on consistent individual performance, team balance and commitment to training with an emphasis on opportunities for player development.
Where possible, players will be allowed a reasonable number of opportunities to perform at a higher grade once they are promoted on form. Historical performance, particularly at a higher level are also taken into account.
Work and social commitments can cause teams to change and a player may be rewarded with selection In a higher grade however generally, a consistent run of high scores or solid bowling spells will put you into contention.
Being selected to play in any grade for our club is a privilege not a right and you must respect the selection panel’s decision and acknowledge that the opportunity to improve and be promoted is always the objective at any level of the game.
Fitness issues need to be communicated to captains and coaches – you must be honest and up front if you are not fully fit to be selected. It is unfair for those next in line for selection if you deny them the chance to play – the club and your team mates always come first.
SELECTION COMMITTEE
The Selection Committee consists of Captains of the respective Grade teams, Development League and the Selection Coordinator. The Club Coach is also invited to attend selection meetings to provide advice and comment on players.
All teams will be selected on Tuesday evening before a scheduled fixture(s), not including changes dictated by injury and/or late withdrawals. Players are encouraged to manage their personal life throughout the season proper.
If you cannot be available for selection or become injured, you are expected to inform your captain or the selection coordinator as soon as possible.
