General Information about Lakelands Junior Cricket / The Roles
“Lakelands” junior and youth cricket is a collaboration between Rotorua Cricket Association, Taupo Cricket Association and EBOP Cricket (SWCA players have also been included in Lakelands teams to). Lakelands fixtures occur generally on Sundays throughout the season at a Year 7/8, u/16 and u/19 level, with a 5-day tournament for the u/16 and u/19 teams in December. These teams provide an elevated opportunity for young cricketers to be part of quality squad, receive targeted coaching opportunities, and compete in matches with similar cricketers from other parts of Northern Districts.
The Lakelands Junior Committee is calling for expressions of interest for coaching and management roles for each of the three teams and aim to appoint people in alignment with the selection policy attached. Coaches and managers would be expected to be available for most fixtures, the tournament (if applicable), and coaches for the trainings.

- Approximately 4-5 matches pre- and post-Christmas.
