Every January the North Shore Cricket Club presents the Junior World Series of Cricket, an exciting opportunity for budding young cricket stars to play under the flag of a national team in three days of intense competition.

Players have come from as far off as England and Christchurch to play, but most are local and entries from all Auckland clubs are welcome.

There are no selection criteria, except first in, best dressed. Cricketers of all abilities take part - so anyone can play and get a chance to star. Players get selected into teams to represent the major cricketing countries of the world.

The ‘Little League’ teams (age 6 – 8) play at Devonport Domain with batsmen getting an equal turn at the crease and fielders rotating each over. Coaches for Little League teams come from secondary school squads giving youth players leadership opportunities.

9 – 13 year olds play 30-over games at Devonport Domain, Belmont Intermediate, Vauxhall Reserve and Stanley Bay in the middle and senior levels of the competition. Captains come from the host club who assume full responsibility for batting order (within rules which ensure all players get to bat in the opening three at some stage in the tournament), bowling rotation, field placement and teamwork.

At all levels, the black shirt is coveted but is no guarantee of a place in the final.

One aspect though, that is guaranteed is spectator support – for both ‘home’ and ‘away’ teams – in equal proportions!

Tournament: January 23rd - 25th
