CANCELLATIONS & FIXTURE CHANGES

  • Double-checking your fixture on PlayHQ here on a Friday evening to make sure there have been no changes made to times or venues is a good habit we recommend.
  • For wet weather cancellations, please check the Auckland Cricket website here first. Cancellations will be posted by 7am on Saturday mornings.
  • Coaches/managers if you are unsure if the game is on, we encourage you to use the contact list we will provide you, to call the opposition team coach/manager to discuss this. If a mutual agreement cannot be made, the home team manager has final say on pitch condition and playability.  If a game is abandoned, the home team coach/manager must enter the game as abandoned on PlayHQ immediately.
  • For grade-wide cancellations or a Michaels Ave field closure, an email will be sent out to all team members and a text will be sent to coaches/managers. Make sure to follow our Facebook page here as we will post cancellation updates where we can.
  • If a specific team is cancelled or game is changed Friday evening onwards, we will send a text to the coaches and managers.
