ANNEXURE 1<br />
PROVINCIAL CRICKET PROGRAMME IN SRI LANKA<br />
<strong>Sri</strong> <strong>Lanka</strong> <strong>Cricket</strong> launched the Provincial <strong>Cricket</strong> Programme <strong>for</strong>mally in Dcember<br />
2007 with the following objectives in mind.<br />
<br />
<br />
To harness the raw energy and the enthusiasm displayed by our youth and to<br />
finesse it to create a <strong>for</strong>ce that will ignite and propel <strong>Sri</strong> <strong>Lanka</strong> to the top<br />
<strong>of</strong> the cricketing world.<br />
To enhance the quality and effectiveness <strong>of</strong> cricket and give players across<br />
the country an equal opportunity to showcase their skills by improving<br />
infrastructure at the Provincial & District levels and to create Centers <strong>of</strong><br />
Excellence that will <strong>of</strong>fer the players access to latest coaching and training<br />
methods.<br />
In order to achieve the above, recognizing the need to have a highly competitive<br />
Domestic <strong>Cricket</strong> Structure, it was decided to conduct the following tournaments<br />
annually on a provincial basis.<br />
It is believed that such a structure would enhance the quality and effectiveness <strong>of</strong><br />
cricket being played and give the players across the country an equal opportunity to<br />
show their cricketing skills enabling them to be considered <strong>for</strong> participation at<br />
national level. This would also enable young cricketers to play together with the<br />
National <strong>Cricket</strong>ers in these tournaments and develop their technique and<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism<br />
