CEO’s <strong>Report</strong><br />

Every cricket season brings with it memorable<br />

moments and instances that will stick long<br />

in the mind. But it is a rare season that gives<br />

us memories that will last a generation.<br />

For many the 2014/2015 season was defined by<br />

the ICC Cricket World Cup. Brendan McCullum<br />

dared New Zealand to ‘dream big’ and together<br />

as a nation we celebrated a BLACKCAPS side<br />

that was equal parts passion and performance.<br />

A BLACKCAPS side that would carry us to the<br />

ICC Cricket World Cup <strong>final</strong> and along the<br />

way entertaining us with a couple of sporting<br />

events that we will remember for decades.<br />

Eden Park has seen its fair share of brilliant<br />

matches but anyone who was there for both<br />

the Black Caps game versus Australia and the<br />

semi-<strong>final</strong> against South Africa would argue<br />

that these games topped anything the stadium<br />

had seen before. For a ground that has been<br />

much maligned as a cricket oval, often unfairly,<br />

it proved that it has no equal in this country at<br />

producing an electrifying sporting atmosphere.<br />

What was so thrilling to witness and be part<br />

of was the passion and excitement that was<br />

generated by the World Cup. Passion for cricket<br />

that has probably not been seen since the<br />

tournament was last played on these shores over<br />

20 years ago. Many who were there to witness<br />

either of those BLACKCAPS victories proclaimed<br />

it the greatest sporting event of their lives.<br />

For Auckland Cricket, the ICC Cricket World<br />

Cup provided a magnificent centrepiece to<br />

a season that was full of success and hope<br />

for the future. The tournament was a timely<br />

reminder for everyone that enjoys cricket of<br />

just what passion it is capable of generating<br />

and what a great opportunity we have to<br />

build on that in the coming seasons.<br />

Community Cricket<br />

That enjoyment of cricket is the legacy that we<br />

were trying to create through our new Auckland<br />

Cricket initiative for the 2014/15 season – Cricket<br />

Blitz. Catering for school kids from Year 5 to Year<br />

13 this brand new competition attracted 128 new<br />

teams in its inaugural season. Played after school<br />

in 8-a-side teams between sides in their local<br />

area, the 90 minute modified <strong>version</strong> of the game<br />

was a fantastic success across all age groups.<br />

Designed to engage the junior cricketer, either<br />

new or returning to the game, Cricket Blitz has<br />

boosted an area of our game (junior numbers)<br />

that had been declining for some time. Creating<br />

the next generation of club players and fans<br />

is just as important as nurturing the top<br />

echelon of talent that we already do so well.<br />

The club scene remains strong and healthy with<br />

Auckland Cricket’s Club is the Hub programme<br />

the envy of other sporting codes in New<br />

Zealand. The highlights of Premier Club Cricket<br />

were the performances of Parnell in winning<br />

the Hedley Howarth Trophy and Cornwall for<br />

winning the Jeff Crowe Cup and ultimately being<br />

crowned National One Day club champions.<br />

Auckland Representative Teams<br />

Success on the national scene was evidenced<br />

with four national titles sitting in our trophy<br />

cabinet by seasons end. Congratulations to<br />

players and management of the Auckland<br />

Hearts, Auckland U21 Women’s, Auckland<br />

Under 19 Men’s and Auckland Under 17 Boys.<br />

The work done in establishing a well structured<br />

and resourced high performance unit with a<br />

clear philosophy is definitely starting to bear fruit<br />

at representative level. Part of that development<br />

has been the introduction of the Developing<br />

Future Aces and Future Hearts programme that<br />

has targeted a small number of cricketers that<br />

have the potential to go on and play domestic<br />

and possibly international cricket. The first year<br />

of the programme has proven a real success<br />

with two players, Glen Phillips and Shawn<br />

Hicks, already making the transition to a full<br />

domestic contract this season. This is a key plank<br />

of our talent identification programme and is<br />

something that we will grow again this season.<br />

Unfortunately the Mondiale Auckland Aces<br />

didn’t achieve to their potential and whilst<br />

hindsight will say that their three second place<br />

efforts in Domestic Twenty20, One Day and<br />

Plunket Shield were a solid effort, I know that<br />

the team were very disappointed that they<br />

could not turn second into winner’s trophies.<br />

In 2014/2015 four Auckland players represented<br />

the BLACKCAPS and seven Auckland players<br />

represented the WHITE FERNS. In addition ten<br />

Auckland developed players were contracted<br />

to other Major Associations in New Zealand.<br />

This past season has also seen the retirement<br />

of Kyle Mills from International and Domestic<br />

Cricket. After a stellar career I thank Kyle for the<br />

years of service to Auckland and cricket, and<br />

wish him all the best for life’s next challenge.<br />

Business of Cricket<br />

From a financial perspective, Auckland Cricket<br />

continues to remain strong and healthy. The<br />

small operating deficit was within budget in<br />

a year when operating costs were inflated<br />

due to Domestic Cricket being relocated from<br />

Eden Park to Colin Maiden Park for Cricket<br />

World Cup. As always Auckland Cricket are<br />

indebted to our many sponsors and grant<br />

providers for their support of community<br />

cricket. We are also indebted to New Zealand<br />

Cricket for their support and we would like to<br />

acknowledge their performance in negotiating<br />

key commercial arrangements that provide long<br />

term security for all cricket in New Zealand<br />

To the cricket clubs, the <strong>ACA</strong> Board and the<br />

many supporters of cricket in Auckland, my<br />

thanks for a job well done in 2014/2015.<br />

Mark Cameron<br />

Chairman’s <strong>Report</strong><br />

It is my pleasure to submit this report on behalf of<br />

the Auckland Cricket Association Board of Directors<br />

for the 2014/15 year.<br />

My comments on the year in review are as follows.<br />

Eden Park<br />

Cricket World Cup proved to be an outstanding<br />

success and matches played at Eden Park,<br />

provided a wonderful atmosphere and<br />

some magnificent cricket. If anything the<br />

Park proved that its natural amphitheater,<br />

following the 2009 redevelopment, could<br />

provide an atmosphere second to none for<br />

cricket matches when filled to near capacity.<br />

This may well have been a factor in NZC’s<br />

decision to allocate four international<br />

matches to Auckland next season, including<br />

the initial Chapple/Hadlee Trophy match<br />

versus Australia, and we look forward<br />

to hosting these matches in 2016.<br />

Meanwhile domestic cricket continued on<br />

the outer oval with the quality of the facilities<br />

continuing to receive high ratings from the<br />

players. The only question here being whether<br />

the pitch quality was too good, making it<br />

difficult to obtain outright results in the Plunket<br />

Shield, potentially a disadvantage to the Aces.<br />

Who would want to be a groundsman??<br />

Administratively, we continue to work hard at<br />

our relationship with the Eden Park Trust with a<br />

view to ensuring that our rights encapsulated<br />

under the 2009 Trust Deed are maintained.<br />

During the past year we have faced some<br />

challenges with the Trust seeking to change<br />

the zoning status of the No 2 oval pursuant<br />

to the Unitary Plan process, in order to allow<br />

for potential future redevelopment. While<br />

we have strenuously opposed this move, the<br />

outcome will not be known until 2016 when<br />

the Plan is ultimately endorsed by council.<br />

Finance<br />

As always, we have continued to maintain a close<br />

watch on expenditure while looking to ways<br />

and means of increasing revenue opportunities,<br />

and I am pleased to be able to say that we<br />

have again achieved a satisfactory result in<br />

the 14/15 financial year, while maintaining<br />

and enhancing levels of funding to clubs. It<br />

is worth repeating that our ‘club is the hub’<br />

scheme continues to be widely regarded as<br />

a best practice model for both cricket and<br />

other sporting codes in New Zealand. As<br />

expected, we have shown a small surplus at<br />

year end, prior to depreciation, and we expect<br />

to return a similar result in the 2015/16 year.<br />

Thanks are due to the Finance Committee led<br />

by Director Paul Kelly, and CEO Mark Cameron<br />

and his staff, for their diligence in continuing to<br />

ensure that we achieve sound financial results.<br />

I am pleased to report also that the ACDF,<br />

led by Rob Davis and Board, is continuing to<br />

provide an invaluable financial resource for the<br />

development of facilities across the region.<br />

High Performance<br />

On the playing field, our flagship teams,<br />

the Aces and Hearts, both performed well,<br />

with the Aces finishing runner up in each<br />

of the T20, Ford Trophy and Plunket Shield<br />

competitions, and the Hearts winning the 50<br />

over competition and finishing 3rd in the T20.<br />

Of our other high performance teams, the<br />

men’s A team won the national tournament<br />

as did the Under 19s and the U21 Women,<br />

while the Under 17s finished second.<br />

Although the Aces will be disappointed<br />

with their failure to win a title in 14/15, their<br />

results represented a significant improvement<br />

on the previous year, and augur well for<br />

the season ahead. The Hearts continue to<br />

make good progress and to some extent<br />

have exceeded expectations, following the<br />

loss of a number of experienced players,<br />

and we look forward to them continuing<br />

to progress during the coming season.<br />

Congratulations to Maddy Green, Samantha<br />

Curtis, Sara McGlashan, Katie Perkins, Anna<br />

Peterson, Holly Huddleston, Georgia Guy,<br />

Martin Guptill, Kyle Mills, Colin Munro, and<br />

Mitchell McClenaghan - all of whom were<br />

selected to represent New Zealand in 2014/15.<br />

Colin Munro and Colin De Grandhomme<br />

also represented New Zealand A.<br />

The results achieved by our representative<br />

teams and the number of New Zealand<br />

representatives are key indicators of the success<br />

of our high performance programmes, and<br />

Auckland Cricket continues to invest resources<br />

in this area with a view to developing and<br />

enhancing the performance of our elite players.<br />

Meanwhile NZC, in conjunction with the<br />

Major Associations, is undertaking a review<br />

of domestic cricket which will result in<br />

some changes to the format of the T20<br />

competition for the 15/16 season. The<br />

review of all formats remains on going.<br />

Grassroots<br />

The game at Club level continues to thrive<br />

with senior playing numbers on the increase<br />

overall, and initial anecdotal evidence is<br />

that the success of Cricket World Cup is<br />

likely to provide the impetus for a further<br />

increase in numbers in 2015/16.<br />

We have also taken the lead at school<br />

level with the introduction of the midweek<br />

Cricket Blitz competition in 14/15,<br />

attracting another 128 teams. Management<br />

deserve praise for this initiative, which is<br />

expected to grow in the coming year.<br />

At Premier grade level, Parnell won the Hedley<br />

Howarth Trophy for the first time in 66 years,<br />

while Cornwall won the Jeff Crowe Cup and went<br />

on to secure the National title while representing<br />

Auckland in the National Club Championships.<br />

Suburbs New Lynn won the Premier T20 title. In<br />

the womens game, Cornwall won both one day<br />

competitions and Waitakere won the T20 title.<br />

Takapuna won the overall club<br />

championship trophy.<br />

Congratulations are due to each<br />

of these clubs and teams.<br />

Again, it is appropriate that we acknowledge<br />

the thousands of volunteers who contribute<br />

so much to the grass roots of our game, at<br />

club and school level, and for whose ongoing<br />

support we remain continually grateful.<br />

General<br />

I would like to thank my fellow Directors for<br />

again inviting me to chair the Board this year and<br />

for the input and support they have provided. It<br />

has been another significant year for the reasons<br />

outlined above, and we continue to be well<br />

served by an excellent group of Directors, who<br />

contribute much to the governance of our game.<br />

I also wish to acknowledge CEO Mark<br />

Cameron and his hard working management<br />

team. In my view we are very well served<br />

with the level of commitment, enthusiasm<br />

and professionalism that Mark and his<br />

team provide to Auckland Cricket.<br />

Finally, a special thanks to our sponsors and<br />

funding providers without whose support<br />

we could not continue to function.<br />

We now look forward to the challenges<br />

of the 2015/16 season.<br />

President’s <strong>Report</strong><br />

It gives me great pleasure as president of<br />

the Auckland Cricket Association to present<br />

my report for the 2014/15 season.<br />

The Mondiale Auckland Aces<br />

A season producing three seconds in all<br />

forms of the game again showed the steady<br />

improvement that is required to win titles.<br />

I would like to congratulate Coach Matt Horne<br />

for the work he put in during his tenure with<br />

Auckland Cricket - well done Matt. This season<br />

sees the experienced Mark O’Donnell back at<br />

the helm. We will all be watching with great<br />

interest to see whether the Mondiale Auckland<br />

Aces can secure a number of titles this coming<br />

season. Mark has a mix of experience and youth<br />

in his squad to work with - all the best for the<br />

coming season to you and your team Mark.<br />

Past Players Event<br />

It was good to see a large number of past<br />

players turn out at Colin Maiden Park during<br />

the season to meet the current players, and<br />

view the last session of the Mondiale Aces<br />

Plunket Shield match against Canterbury.<br />

A question and answer session was held with<br />

the players group, which brought the past<br />

players up to speed on how the game has<br />

changed and is continuing to change. This was a<br />

good initiative by Auckland Cricket and hopefully<br />

we will see more of these this coming season.<br />

Auckland A<br />

Andre Adams and Nick White formed a new<br />

coaching partnership at the helm of the A<br />

team this season and the side showed their<br />

dominance winning the competition with day<br />

in and day out quality performances. The team<br />

was captained for the first time by Michael<br />

Barry who had at his disposal a very strong<br />

batting line-up, and who himself ended the<br />

tournament with a batting average of 95.<br />

This strength at the next level down is a very<br />

good sign for Auckland Cricket moving forward,<br />

and I’m sure we will see a number of these<br />

young up and coming players featuring for the<br />

Mondiale Aces over the next couple of seasons,<br />

if not before becoming future Black Caps.<br />

To all involved in this side congratulations<br />

on winning the A tournament.<br />

Club Cricket<br />

The Hedley Howarth Trophy was taken out<br />

by Parnell due to some consistent all round<br />

performances across the squad throughout<br />

the season, under the astute and experienced<br />

coaching of Ian Trott. The Tom Hellaby Trophy<br />

went to Cornwall, which earned them promotion<br />

back into the Major Championship for 2015/16.<br />

Cornwall also took out the Jeff Crowe Cup one<br />

day title and they rounded off the season in style<br />

by winning the National Club Championship.<br />

Well done to all involved with the Cornwall<br />

achievements throughout the season. I must<br />

give special mention to Rex Smith the coach,<br />

who for many years has stuck by his Cornwall<br />

club, and the belief in his players to perform<br />

at the level that is required to win titles. Rex<br />

is astute and the only way he knows is to win.<br />

The T20 Final was contested at Orakei Domain<br />

between Parnell and Suburbs New Lynn with the<br />

latter claiming the title due to an outstanding<br />

display of batting by the Mondiale Aces opening<br />

batsman Jeet Raval. It is always good to see the<br />

First Class players going back and playing for<br />

their clubs when not playing for their province.<br />

Cornwall also took out the Jeff Crowe<br />

Cup one day title and they rounded off<br />

S U M M A R Y<br />

Auckland Hearts<br />

The Auckland Hearts performed<br />

with distinction under their new<br />

coach Elfriede Chooi.<br />

They won the one day title against Canterbury,<br />

and came third in the T20 competition.<br />

As I mentioned in my last report the playing<br />

numbers for womens cricket is still on the<br />

increase and this can only be beneficial for the<br />

game. To Elfriede and your squad keep up the<br />

good work, and we all trust another successful<br />

season will unfold during this year. We have<br />

again led the way with a strong group of our<br />

Hearts being selected for the WHITE FERNS, and<br />

this can only be an inspiration and motivation<br />

for other members in the Hearts squad.<br />

Cricket Blitz<br />

What a great start to this new after-school<br />

cricket programme that attracted 128 new<br />

teams in its first year and was a huge hit<br />

with primary, intermediate, and secondary<br />

school children. This is a fantastic result for<br />

Auckland Cricket, tackling it head on and the<br />

schools responding. There is no doubt with<br />

this success in the 2014/15 season we will see<br />

the number of teams increase this season.<br />

All these initiatives that are being taken by<br />

Auckland Cricket can only further encourage<br />

more to be involved in this great game.<br />

International Cricket.<br />

ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 - the tournament<br />

that brought the country to a stand still.<br />

This was outstandingly run, and in turn<br />

got the support it thoroughly deserved.<br />

The BLACKCAPS showed that cricket in New<br />

Zealand is in great shape and also showed that<br />

we are now displaying the hardness that is<br />

required to compete with the best in the world.<br />

There were so many memorable moments<br />

during the tournament, however one<br />

of the most touching was to see one of<br />

our greatest batsman, Martin Crowe,<br />

be inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall<br />

of Fame - congratulations to him.<br />

What an achievement for the Blackcaps to<br />

get to the <strong>final</strong>. No team wants to lose but on<br />

this occasion the Australians had the edge,<br />

and we had to be content with second.<br />

To Auckland players Kyle Mills, Martin<br />

Guptill, and Mitchel McClenaghan who<br />

made the ICC World Cup Squad, you all did<br />

your country and province proud. And to<br />

Kyle who has now retired from all cricket,<br />

congratulations on a great career.<br />

2015/16<br />

As we gear up for another season, I would like<br />

to thank all the clubs, administrators, coaches,<br />

players, supporters and umpires that commit<br />

their time to cricket and wish them many<br />

memorable moments in 2015/16. To all the<br />

sponsors, your contributions are well received<br />

High Performance Summary<br />

Overall, the High Performance teams for<br />

Auckland Cricket had a successful season,<br />

with only one team, the Hearts, not finishing<br />

first or second in their respective national<br />

competitions. The Hearts just missed making<br />

the Twenty20 <strong>final</strong> on net run rate.<br />

So, it reads like this:<br />

Mondiale Aces 2nd, 2nd, 2nd;<br />

Hearts<br />

1st, 3rd<br />

A Team<br />

1st<br />

U19 Men<br />

1st<br />

U21 Women 1st<br />

U17 Boys<br />

2nd<br />

This can be interpreted as evidence that<br />

our High Performance programmes<br />

are working as we aim to win titles and<br />

produce elite international players.<br />

A major focus has been on getting our talent<br />

characteristics right when it comes to selecting<br />

and developing players. More emphasis has<br />

been placed on aspects such as coachability,<br />

work ethic, resilience, motivation and cricket<br />

smarts, to go with the high level of natural<br />

ability that these players already have.<br />

This has led to our teams displaying more<br />

character and fighting back hard in games<br />

when the scoreboard has been against them<br />

at times, turning potential losses into wins<br />

and learning from those experiences.<br />

A clear example of this was when the Developing<br />

Future Aces team (16 to 18 year old boys) played<br />

the NZ Croatian Men’s team in a one day fixture.<br />

The youngsters were proving competitive in their<br />

run chase so the NZ Croatians put them under<br />

a lot of pressure physically and mentally to say<br />

the least. The Developing Future Aces waned for<br />

a while but Mitchell Murray, in the middle order,<br />

retained his composure to tactically bat very well<br />

and steer the lower order to a penultimate over<br />

victory. The right mental, tactical and leadership<br />

approach was clearly shown, which is a key<br />

focus of this playing programme for our talented<br />

youngsters against senior representative men’s<br />

teams, which included Northland B as well.<br />

The return of four former Mondiale Aces players<br />

certainly bolstered the strength and depth of the<br />

team this season, including the return of Craig<br />

Cachopa from Sussex for a successful stint in<br />

both the Georgie Pie Super Smash Twenty20 and<br />

Ford Trophy competitions. Rob Nicol’s captaincy<br />

and form with the bat and ball was well<br />

supported by the likes of Tarun Nethula, Colin<br />

Munro and Michael Bates in the Twenty20, with<br />

the Mondiale Aces just falling short in the <strong>final</strong>.<br />

This carried on into the Ford Trophy<br />

with great performances in the first five<br />

rounds from Martin Guptill and Mitchell<br />

McClenaghan too. Rob unfortunately got<br />

the first of his two injuries halfway through<br />

the Ford Trophy. Michael Bates took over the<br />

captaincy and the team recovered to make<br />

the <strong>final</strong>. Again, not quite to be on the day.<br />

The Mondiale Aces picked themselves up and<br />

gave the <strong>final</strong> gruelling schedule of seven<br />

Plunket Shield matches in February and March<br />

a really good crack. They headed into the last<br />

day of their <strong>final</strong> game against the Otago Volts<br />

at Colin Maiden Park needing an outright<br />

victory to go with an ND win over Canterbury<br />

to finish first. The Mondiale Aces won but<br />

unfortunately ND collapsed. Again second,<br />

however the emergence of both Brad Cachopa<br />

with his three centuries batting at No. 7 and the<br />

fast bowling of Lockie Ferguson as real match<br />

winners bodes very well for next season.<br />

With the Hearts, Elfriede Chooi stepped into the<br />

vacant coach role, after Haidee Tiffen decided<br />

to take a break from coaching and move back<br />

to Christchurch to concentrate on her business<br />

career. Haidee has recently been appointed the<br />

new WHITE FERNS Coach which is well deserved.<br />

After an initial period of adjustment, Elfie<br />

and the Hearts settled into carrying on their<br />

outstanding team culture of continuous<br />

improvement and wanting to win for each<br />

other. With a high number of WHITE FERNS<br />

and new demands being placed on them from<br />

a national perspective, it also took a while<br />

to get everybody comfortable as a team and<br />

push for the titles they desperately wanted.<br />

After just missing the Twenty20 <strong>final</strong>, it all<br />

came together in the One Day Final against<br />

the Canterbury Magicians away at Rangiora.<br />

Hearts captain Vic Lind highlighted the mental<br />

strength of her team after they claimed a lastover<br />

six-wicket victory to win the One Day title.<br />

Canterbury, as the favourites , set a challenging<br />

total of 261 which the Hearts clinically chased<br />

down, with Anna Peterson contributing a matchwinning<br />

42 off 24 balls in the latter stages.<br />

Finally, we bid a fond farewell to our great<br />

Howick-Pakuranga, Auckland Aces and Black<br />

Caps player, Kyle Mills. Kyle has decided to<br />

retire on the back of that amazing World Cup<br />

and we just want to thank and recognise him<br />

for an outstanding 18 year career at the top.<br />

Well done Kyle and all the best for the future.<br />

Mondiale Aces Summary<br />

Three competitions, three second placings<br />

– does that reflect success for the Mondiale<br />

Auckland Aces 2014/15 season?<br />

The obvious answer is no, second place<br />

still means failing to win a title. From there<br />

the reflection on the season can easily<br />

become a glass half full debate based<br />

around perspective and the shade of rose<br />

tinted glasses you happen to be wearing.<br />

So let’s take it back one step and ask what were<br />

the Mondiale Auckland Aces goals heading<br />

into the season? The aim was to win three<br />

competitions, something which has never<br />

been done by any team since the domestic<br />

cricket season expanded to include twenty20.<br />

It was a demanding goal to set and one that will<br />

very rarely be achieved but it is indicative of the<br />

attitude amongst the Mondiale Aces set-up that<br />

they want to be aspirational about every season<br />

and aim to be successful across the board.<br />

Given that context it still leaves the prognosis on<br />

the season as one of ‘not achieved’. However the<br />

finer details that came out of each competition<br />

would suggest that a lot will have been learnt<br />

from those second placings and that much<br />

has been put in place to allow them to be<br />

turned into titles in the coming season.<br />

Players in different formats and in different<br />

ways showed that a depth of talent is<br />

developing, from Lockie Ferguson showing<br />

what he’s capable of in the back end of the<br />

Plunket Shield to Brad Cachopa discovering<br />

century hitting form in grand style to the<br />

heroics of Colin Munro’s world record 281.<br />

The Mondiale Aves cause was not aided<br />

by skipper Rob Nicol and Colin de<br />

Grandhomme missing significant chunks of<br />

their season to injury and thereby leaving<br />

a sizeable gap in the batting arsenal.<br />

It would be hard to say which bridesmaid<br />

position left the Mondiale Aces most<br />

disappointed but it might have felt to most fans<br />

that the Georgie Pie Super Smash was the one<br />

that really got away. Although they qualified<br />

third for the <strong>final</strong>s series the Mondiale Aces faced<br />

a Wellington Firebirds side in the <strong>final</strong> that was<br />

long on experience but short on real firepower.<br />

Batting first the Firebirds innings revolved<br />

around two knocks, one from opener Michael<br />

Pollard (76) and an inventive and explosive<br />

one from Grant Elliott (41 from 17) that<br />

propelled them to 186/6. The Mondiale Aces<br />

reply was a stop/start affair with the highest<br />

partnership being 46 for the second wicket.<br />

Despite that, and after looking out of it at 126/6<br />

in the 15th, it came down to the last two balls<br />

of the match with the Mondiale Aces needing<br />

6 to win. Considering they were nine wickets<br />

down at that point there was no shame that<br />

the last pair couldn’t bring home the title from<br />

there. But the closeness of the result despite<br />

that stuttering batting performance left the<br />

feeling that one partnership or one innings<br />

of just a little more substance (the top score<br />

was 37) would have made the difference.<br />

The Ford Trophy presented an opportunity<br />

to put that defeat immediately behind them<br />

and the Mondiale Aces started with three<br />

comprehensive wins on the back of some<br />

notable contributions from Martin Guptill,<br />

Mitchell McClenaghan and Craig Cachopa. The<br />

rest of the round robin was a little more patchy<br />

with a couple of losses followed by two wins<br />

and another loss. It was enough however to get<br />

them into the main playoff semi-<strong>final</strong> where<br />

they duly dispatched the competition front<br />

running Central Stags on their home turf.<br />

The <strong>final</strong> at Colin Maiden Park against the<br />

same opposition got off to a soggy beginning<br />

as rain meant a delayed start. A dream<br />

start for the Mondiale Aces with two quick<br />

wickets and a barely perceptible run-rate<br />

was slowly turned around by the Stags who<br />

put together a perfectly balanced innings<br />

that saw contributions throughout the<br />

order and allowed them to post 282/8.<br />

The Mondiale Aces reply never got started<br />

with wickets tumbling to the point where<br />

they were 110/8. A ninth wicket partnership<br />

of 81 between captain Michael Bates and<br />

Donovan Grobbelaar offered some faint hope<br />

but the chase still fell well short at 193.<br />

A much more sizable defeat than the Georgie<br />

Pie Super Smash <strong>final</strong> but in many ways a less<br />

disappointing one for the Mondiale Aces.<br />

The Stags had definitely been the form team<br />

throughout the competition and were by far<br />

the superior team on the day. It still hurts<br />

to come second but in this case they could<br />

at least tip their hat to their conquerors and<br />

admit that they thoroughly deserved the win.<br />

If the Mondiale Aces always looked likely<br />

to contest the <strong>final</strong> stages of the short<br />

form competitions then the Plunket<br />

Shield was very much a late breaking run<br />

that saw them just come up short.<br />

Outright victories in their <strong>final</strong> two games<br />

pushed the Mondiale Aces into second and<br />

heading into the penultimate day of the season<br />

they still had the chance of bagging a title but<br />

near neighbours Northern Districts did them<br />

no favours by collapsing and giving Canterbury<br />

the win that confirmed them as champions.<br />

Any disappointment from this competition<br />

for the Mondiale Aces would probably spring<br />

from a slump in form mid-competition where<br />

they went from leading to third and all but<br />

ruled themselves out of contention.<br />

They managed to finish with two straight wins<br />

to make it five outright victories for the season,<br />

a promising improvement from their collection<br />

of just two in 2013/14. However with those<br />

victories also came four losses, including three in<br />

a row at a crucial stage of the season. In the end<br />

Canterbury claimed the title by just seven points,<br />

a margin that would have been turned around<br />

if just one of those losses had been avoided.<br />

As mentioned though the signs were<br />

encouraging in a number of areas. Lockie<br />

Ferguson played the majority of the second<br />

half of the season and picked up 21 wickets,<br />

including his maiden first class five wicket<br />

haul. The bowlers did a good job in general,<br />

picking up more wicket bonus points than<br />

any other side and Michael Bates and<br />

Tarun Nethula topping the 30 wicket mark,<br />

with Matt Quinn just one shy of that.<br />

The batting department was a slightly more<br />

inconsistent affair with three batsman topping<br />

the 750 mark but another four sitting between<br />

300 and 500 runs. That disparity between<br />

the top performers and the remainder of<br />

the batting line-up was borne out by the<br />

fact that all eight centuries for the season<br />

were scored by those three players – Brad<br />

Cachopa, Colin Munro and Jeet Raval.<br />

Those centuries provided some real highlights,<br />

including Munro’s six hitting world record<br />

innings of 281 against the Stags in Napier,<br />

but getting more of their top order to crack<br />

three figures will undoubtedly be something<br />

on the to-do list for next season.<br />

So a season comes to an end with no trophies<br />

in the cabinet and ultimately that signals a<br />

failure for the Mondiale Aces. However the<br />

experience of losing two <strong>final</strong>s and coming so<br />

close in the Plunket Shield will have been banked<br />

and they have taken maybe a few more steps<br />

towards their goal of winning all three trophies<br />

– 2015/16 should make for a fascinating watch.<br />

Hearts Summary<br />

Another season, another trophy for the Hearts<br />

– a pattern that is now becoming the norm<br />

after the sustained success of recent seasons.<br />

This time the one day title was claimed, and it<br />

was a victory that was doubly satisfying after<br />

the heartbreak of <strong>final</strong>s defeats in the last<br />

two seasons. Their Twenty20 title couldn’t be<br />

defended and they missed out on a season<br />

goal that was to claim both trophies on<br />

offer, but despite that it was another season<br />

to savour and another that gave further<br />

credence to the belief that this team can build<br />

a dynasty of domination at domestic level.<br />

They were able to quickly expunge any demons<br />

they might have had from the previous<br />

season’s one day <strong>final</strong> loss to Otago as they<br />

faced the same opposition in the first round<br />

and posted two overwhelming victories.<br />

They then travelled to Hamilton and<br />

dispatched the Northern Spirit by seven<br />

wickets before being denied by the rain in<br />

the second one dayer of the weekend.<br />

The air of confidence that those victories must<br />

have engendered was dented by a Canterbury<br />

side that posted two comfortable wins.<br />

The Hearts rounded off the preliminary stages<br />

with an easy double over Wellington Blaze<br />

and a win and a loss against Central which<br />

ensured them a <strong>final</strong> berth against Canterbury.<br />

They finished the round robin eleven points<br />

clear of third place but were seven adrift of<br />

top qualifiers Canterbury who also had those<br />

two earlier victories to give them confidence.<br />

The <strong>final</strong> also didn’t kick off as planned with<br />

danger woman Amy Satterthwaite continuing<br />

her exceptional season with a brilliant<br />

122 leading the Magicians to an imposing<br />

261/3 after being sent in by the Hearts.<br />

The fact that the Hearts did get the win was<br />

down to a solid batting performance from<br />

the top order that crucially kept wickets in<br />

hand and then a brilliant attacking cameo<br />

to bring it home from Anna Peterson.<br />

The Hearts recovered well from the early loss<br />

of skipper Victoria Lind with Sam Curtis (77)<br />

anchoring the innings and sharing profitable<br />

partnerships with both Sara McGlashan and<br />

then Maddy Green. Curtis was fourth to go<br />

with the score at 196/4 at the end of the<br />

43rd over. That meant the equation for the<br />

last seven overs was an intimidating nine<br />

runs an over and advantage Canterbury.<br />

However Peterson, in partnership with the<br />

ever reliable Katie Perkins, made light of<br />

that by getting the Hearts home with four<br />

balls to spare for a six wicket win. Perkins<br />

contribution was an invaluable 44 from<br />

49 but it was Peterson’s 42 from 24 which<br />

wrested the game away from the favourites<br />

and made it third time lucky for the Hearts.<br />

That performance in the one day <strong>final</strong> made<br />

up for what was ultimately a disappointing<br />

effort in the Twenty20 competition where the<br />

Hearts lost out by run-rate on making a <strong>final</strong> to<br />

finish third. The Hearts would probably admit<br />

that it should have never come to relying on<br />

run-rate to get them through, as they lost<br />

a game they should have won against the<br />

Northern Spirit that in the end proved costly.<br />

Their campaign was an up and down affair<br />

with an opening win against the Otago Sparks<br />

followed by that loss to the Spirit. They then<br />

used their get out of jail free card to win a game<br />

in a super over against Canterbury, before<br />

falling to the Wellington Blaze and rounding<br />

things off with a win against the Central Hinds.<br />

They went into that last round against Central<br />

with a number of possibilities in play but<br />

knowing that they needed a win, and one that<br />

greatly imrpoved their run rate, to make a <strong>final</strong>.<br />

They did the former but couldn’t do enough of<br />

tha latter to bank a spot to defend their title.<br />

Across the season the ongoing development of<br />

this team continued under new coach Elfriede<br />

Chooi who would have been delighted to<br />

cap her first campaign in charge with a title.<br />

The talent depth that the Hearts possess is<br />

clearly evidenced by the fact that they had<br />

seven players represent the White Ferns over<br />

the course of the season, and three have<br />

claimed season contracts for 2015/16.<br />

Their goal was to claim both titles for the season<br />

and whilst there will be disappointment that<br />

they let that one slip there will also be great<br />

pleasure at claiming the crown that has eluded<br />

them at the <strong>final</strong> hurdle for the last two seasons.<br />

Undoubtedly they will be aiming to make it the<br />

perfect season this time around and bag both<br />

titles. Given the talent at their disposal and the<br />

culture within the side you get the feeling that it<br />

will be a matter of when, not if, they achieve that.<br />

Community Cricket<br />

‘Club is the Hub’ is the name given to the<br />

model that underpins the relationship<br />

between Auckland Cricket and its clubs<br />

– and we are very lucky to have it.<br />

It’s important to acknowledge up front two<br />

critical elements of the Club is the Hub model.<br />

Firstly, it acknowledges that Auckland Cricket<br />

staff, sitting behind computers at Eden Park,<br />

are not best placed to directly ensure the<br />

health of the game throughout the suburbs.<br />

Secondly it acknowledges the flip side of this<br />

statement in that the clubs themselves are the<br />

organisations best placed to do this. The role of<br />

Auckland Cricket is to support clubs to this end.<br />

The benefits are significant. Through it, Auckland<br />

Cricket is able to distribute significant funds<br />

towards the management solution of each club,<br />

which tends to vary according to the size. The<br />

larger clubs support full time management;<br />

mid-sized clubs lean towards a more<br />

equitable balance between management and<br />

development and the smaller clubs focus more<br />

towards the development side of the spectrum.<br />

The overriding goal is to use this money<br />

effectively to create a healthy and vibrant club<br />

which is well positioned to promote cricket to<br />

all ages of players in their local community.<br />

The support, however, is not simply a hand out<br />

and in return for financially supporting clubs,<br />

Auckland Cricket leverage this position to<br />

continually lift the standard of club operations.<br />

So what happens when traditional club<br />

cricket numbers start to decline? This is the<br />

current reality for junior cricket and, for the<br />

first time we found ourselves asking “what<br />

significant improvements can we make to<br />

improve the Club is the Hub model”?<br />

At this point we need to make it clear that there<br />

are no plans to either remove or reduce the<br />

funds distributed to clubs! The approach has<br />

been, with the support of clubs, to improve<br />

the way that the model is managed.<br />

The SLA’s work towards sustainable growth<br />

by highlighting eight key areas. If there is<br />

investment in time, money and energy into<br />

these areas, then there is no doubt that<br />

the club will achieve solid and sustainable<br />

growth over a period of time. In previous<br />

years we simply asked clubs to fill out a<br />

census form showing playing and coaching<br />

numbers; now we take an increasingly active<br />

interest in the overall health of the club.<br />

The eight key areas that are important<br />

for sustainable growth are<br />

• Governance<br />

• Club Management<br />

• Facilities<br />

• School/club links<br />

• Coaching<br />

• Representative players<br />

• Girls cricket<br />

• Umpires/scorers<br />

Under each of these key areas are sub-sections<br />

which, taken as a whole, form best practise for<br />

how a cricket club in Auckland should operate.<br />

Added annually to these sub-sections are agreed<br />

targets which form both the basis of a business<br />

plan and, over time, will form an historical<br />

reference of the performance in each area.<br />

We would like to take this opportunity to<br />

thank Foundation North for their significant<br />

contribution towards the Club is the Hub funding<br />

model. Further, we thank the clubs for their<br />

buy-in to SLA’s. It’s being reported that clubs<br />

have embraced them to the point where they<br />

have become regular agenda items at meetings.<br />

Through this combined effort, Auckland<br />

Cricket and our Clubs are far better placed to<br />

get the best value from a world class model.<br />

Adrian Dale<br />

Community Cricket Manager<br />

With this goal in mind, the most significant<br />

step forward has been the introduction of<br />

Service Level Agreements (SLA’s). It’s fair to<br />

say that whilst the Club is the Hub model<br />

provides the funds to assist clubs towards<br />

sustainable growth, the SLAs provide the<br />

framework of how this can be achieved<br />

effectively. It’s not solely focussed on outcomes,<br />

but has an equal focus on the building blocks<br />

required for these outcomes to be met.<br />

And that’s a hat-trick Ladies and Gentlemen.<br />

Takapuna have done it and taken out the<br />

Symonds and Osborne Trophy as Major Club<br />

of the Year for the third consecutive year.<br />

The fact they have held the title for five of the<br />

last six years, is a testament to their teams<br />

who have performed the best across many<br />

different grades, and an achievement that will<br />

take quite some beating in years to come.<br />

Congratulations also go to Oratia United<br />

who were Minor Club of the Year with<br />

consistent performances by their teams<br />

securing the title for them this season.<br />

World Cup<br />

This season saw Auckland hosting a number<br />

of Cricket World Cup games at Eden Park.<br />

Each game was an outstanding display of<br />

ability and sportsmanship and I’m sure the<br />

change to playing on Sundays on these<br />

days, was welcomed with the cricketing<br />

community attending in their 10’s of 1000’s.<br />

Men’s Premier Competitions<br />

The season opened with the Limited Overs<br />

competition and all 14 teams battled it<br />

out through October and early January for<br />

the right to compete in the <strong>final</strong> of the Jeff<br />

Crowe Cup in February. The semi-<strong>final</strong>s were<br />

contested by Suburbs New Lynn, Takapuna,<br />

Cornwall and Auckland University. The <strong>final</strong><br />

saw Cornwall beating off a strong challenge<br />

from Auckland University to win the <strong>final</strong><br />

by 32 runs on their home ground, and<br />

earn the right to represent Auckland at the<br />

National Club Championships in April.<br />

The Premier T20 championship continues<br />

to be played on Wednesday evenings with<br />

each team’s supporters turning up in huge<br />

numbers each week. The T20 Plate <strong>final</strong>s saw<br />

Auckland University defeat Eden Roskill, while in<br />

the T20 Championship <strong>final</strong> Suburbs New Lynn<br />

had a resounding win over Parnell by 8 wickets.<br />

The Hedley Howarth and Tom Hellaby two day<br />

championships, continued to deliver the drama<br />

and suspense we have come to expect from these<br />

titles. Right on queue the weather ended almost<br />

all play on day one of the <strong>final</strong> round, leaving<br />

the season’s <strong>final</strong> placings hanging on the <strong>final</strong><br />

playing day for a number of teams. By the close of<br />

play on day two, Parnell confirmed they were the<br />

winners of the Hedley Howarth with an outright<br />

win over Auckland University, celebrating their<br />

win at their temporary home ground of Orakei<br />

domain. In a hard fought season Howick Pakuranga<br />

finished in eighth place and were automatically<br />

relegated to the minor championship for 2015-16.<br />

In the minor championship the Tom Hellaby trophy<br />

was secured by Cornwall with a first innings win<br />

over Eden Roskill on the <strong>final</strong> day of the season,<br />

Women’s Premier Competitions<br />

This was Cornwall’s season, being named<br />

overall champions, winning both the Pearl<br />

Dawson and Prichard Cup Limited overs titles,<br />

and finishing third in the T20 competition.<br />

Cornwall and Waitakere played an epic <strong>final</strong><br />

reminded us what Premier cricket is all about<br />

– tenacity, skill and playing to the end, the<br />

match swung back and forth and there was no<br />

clear winner until the <strong>final</strong> runs were scored.<br />

Waitakere took out the T20 championship<br />

defeating Takapuna by 8 wickets.<br />

Cricket Express Junior Leagues<br />

Cricket Express continues to be a major<br />

sponsor of club cricket, and in particular the<br />

Cricket Express Junior Leagues. I would like<br />

to extend our sincere thanks to Mike Mead<br />

and the team for their continuing support and<br />

commitment to club cricket in Auckland.<br />

Live Scoring<br />

Live scoring has continued to be a valuable<br />

feature to our weekly cricket competitions,<br />

from being able to follow games ball by ball, to<br />

having results available and uploaded almost<br />

instantly following the games. This season<br />

saw just under 1000 games scored via the app<br />

and almost half of those were live scored.<br />

Our Unsung Heroes<br />

Without the continuing support and selfless<br />

giving of time from the many volunteers<br />

throughout clubs at all levels, Auckland<br />

Cricket would not be able to deliver the level<br />

of cricket experience currently provided to<br />

players. Whether you coach, manage, score,<br />

umpire, are on a committee, or if you simply<br />

turn up and do whatever is needed, we would<br />

like to take this opportunity to thank you for<br />

your support and efforts this past season.<br />

Our sincere thanks also goes to the Auckland<br />

Cricket Umpires & Scorers Association. To all<br />

the scorers and umpires who have given so<br />

many hours of dedicated commitment we<br />

are extremely grateful. A special mention<br />

to Doug Cowie, Dave Middleton and Adrian<br />

West who have worked tirelessly this season.<br />

The game would not be the same if it were<br />

not for the efforts and countless hours you<br />

have all contributed to our great game.<br />

Marketing and Communications<br />

It was an interesting season for our marketing<br />

and communications with a domestic<br />

season often seemingly acting as an entrée<br />

and then sideshow to the main course<br />

that was the ICC Cricket World Cup.<br />

That event showed what fantastic support<br />

the game has in this country and the amount<br />

of goodwill engendered is something we are<br />

keen to capitalize on for the coming season.<br />

Auckland Cricket played very much a supporting<br />

role to the World Cup match day media<br />

experience but it was electrifying to be on hand<br />

for both the Australia and South Africa games<br />

to experience the atmosphere that was created<br />

by the crowd – to have so many people claim<br />

the semi-<strong>final</strong> was their best ever sporting<br />

moment is an indication of how special it was.<br />

Georgie Pie Super Smash<br />

In rather stark contrast our domestic showpiece<br />

– the newly named Georgie Pie Super Smash T20<br />

– was unfortunately played out in a slightly less<br />

fevered atmosphere. The move to a five games<br />

in a weekend format proved to be problematic<br />

in attracting crowds and was only moderately<br />

successful as a television product. Having said<br />

that the competition needed a radical change<br />

and congratulations to New Zealand Cricket for<br />

promoting and pushing that change – it just<br />

turned out that more change was needed.<br />

A lot was done to improve the at–ground<br />

experience with a range of innovations including<br />

face painters, stilt walkers, brass band players<br />

and a dedicated kids zone. Much of this worked<br />

very well and will be something we look to<br />

replicate and build on for the coming season.<br />

The competition will take another turn this<br />

season with Auckland having three Sunday<br />

games in prospect at family friendly times,<br />

and all to be played out on the Outer Oval – a<br />

prospect that bodes well for a great atmosphere.<br />

Mondiale Auckland Aces<br />

The season just passed was also the first in a<br />

three year naming rights deal for the Auckland<br />

Aces with Mondiale. Embedding the Mondiale<br />

Auckland Aces as a brand name with players, staff,<br />

media and the cricketing public was one of the<br />

focuses for the year and something that we can<br />

claim to have done successfully in season one.<br />

Our aim is to ensure that the connection for<br />

Mondiale with the Aces is about bringing two<br />

quality brands together. The Mondiale Aces<br />

almost did their part performance wise but<br />

unfortunately couldn’t turn three seconds into<br />

titles. We are very appreciative of the support that<br />

Mondiale are providing and we’re confident that<br />

we can build on the relationship in 2015/16.<br />

Ford Trophy<br />

A re-organization of the domestic schedule that<br />

put the Ford Trophy one day competition in the<br />

December-January window provided us with<br />

an opportunity to revisit how we promote and<br />

34<br />

Auckland Cricket <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> 14-15 master.indd 34<br />

14/10/15 1:20 pm


A lot was done to improve the at-ground<br />

experience<br />

S U M M A R Y<br />

run these games. An increased level of support<br />

from New Zealand Cricket combined with<br />

increased marketing budget from Auckland<br />

Cricket, along with home games in the summer<br />

holiday period, gave us average crowds of<br />

over 750 across four home games. The biggest<br />

crowd was over 1,000 and given that figures<br />

had been in the low hundreds in recent seasons<br />

this was a significant increase in attendance.<br />

The other part of our efforts for the competition<br />

was to change the set-up on the Outer Oval to<br />

try and create a better atmosphere around the<br />

ground. We introduced a kids zone with bouncy<br />

castle as well as marquees along the Sandringham<br />

Rd bank and opened up the Bert Sutcliffe Lounge<br />

for the public and as our sale of alcohol outlet.<br />

Collectively this provided a marked change in feel<br />

to each game and moved us further away from the<br />

big stadium feel that even the Outer Oval has at<br />

times. This season we will look to use this template<br />

for both the Georgie Pie Super Smash and Ford<br />

Trophy, with the aim to make the Outer Oval<br />

have more of a village green look and feel to it.<br />

Social media<br />

As each season goes by the significance of what<br />

we do in the social media area and how it allows<br />

us to engage with our cricketing audience grows<br />

exponentially. For the last three years Auckland<br />

Cricket has been operating three channels –<br />

Facebook, Twitter and YouTube – and introduced<br />

an audio channel (Audioboom) last season.<br />

These channels allow us to tell a rich range<br />

of stories from across the spectrum of<br />

Auckland Cricket activities and in a form<br />

that can attract an audience that might<br />

not be interested in a written piece.<br />

It would be fair to say that we are still learning<br />

in all these formats and trying to develop the<br />

most effective ways of using them to help<br />

us communicate with our audience. Over<br />

recent years we have become increasingly<br />

effective at being a broadcaster across these<br />

formats. The intent this season is to extend that<br />

further but also to try and increase the level<br />

of engagement we have so that we have more<br />

of a two way communication happening.<br />

We are also intending to add two new streams<br />

– Instagram and Vine – all of which requires<br />

resource to run well and create a consistent<br />

stream of content. This has been our biggest<br />

issue in growing what we do in recent times but<br />

with the addition of two new staff members in<br />

the Marketing and Communications area for the<br />

season ahead we will be looking for significant<br />

change and growth in our social media presence.<br />

Obituaries<br />

Judge Mick Brown<br />

Judge Brown, described by those who<br />

knew him as humble, compassionate and<br />

determined, revolutionised the New Zealand<br />

youth justice system with changes that were<br />

later emulated throughout the world.<br />

A foster child who grew up to be a<br />

lawyer, Judge Brown spent his adult life<br />

giving back - to the young people who<br />

came through the Youth Court, and on<br />

various charitable trusts including the<br />

Auckland Cricket Association and the Child<br />

Development Foundation of New Zealand.<br />

In 2013, he was awarded the Blake Medal for<br />

leadership - the supreme prize of the Sir Peter<br />

Blake Trust Leadership Awards. The citation said<br />

he had dramatically changed the juvenile court<br />

system and significantly improved outcomes.<br />

During his time as the first Principal Youth<br />

Court Judge, he was responsible for the<br />

overhaul of the system from its punitive state in<br />

1989 to a restorative one that continues today.<br />

Leif Dearsley<br />

Leif was a longstanding member of Cornwall<br />

having served as Chairman and President as<br />

well as being an extremely active member of<br />

the club from the 1960’s through to the 90’s.<br />

He was manager of the New Zealand team<br />

in the early 1990’s including the tour of<br />

Sri Lanka in 1992 when a suicide bomb<br />

was set off outside the team’s hotel.<br />

Leif was also a great contributor to Auckland<br />

Cricket and was made an Honorary<br />

Member in recognition of that in 1987.<br />

Eric Dunn<br />

Eric played for Auckland from 1955-1957,<br />

playing ten first class games and accruing 29<br />

wickets including two five wicket hauls. Eric<br />

had a strong assocaition with the Papatoetoe<br />

club and was also a fine rugby player.<br />

Judge Brown was a Vice Patron of Auckland<br />

Cricket from 1997/98 until 2009/10.<br />

Cricketer of the Year Awards<br />

The Auckland Cricketer of the Year Awards provide<br />

an opportunity for the wider cricket<br />

community in Auckland to join in honouring<br />

the achievements of those players and<br />

officials who have displayed outstanding<br />

form in the 2014/15 season.<br />

This season we kept it local and had former<br />

New Zealand cricketers and commentator<br />

John ‘Mystery’ Morrison as our speaker, who<br />

provided a very dry and funny take on both<br />

his playing days and the modern game.<br />

Geoff Bryan compered an evening that<br />

highlighted some of the great talent<br />

that the Mondiale Aces and Hearts<br />

have available to them, as well as<br />

honouring our top club cricketers.<br />

Cricketer of the Year<br />

John Bentham Morris Memorial Trophy<br />

Martin Guptill (Suburbs New Lynn)<br />

Some unenlightened cricket fans were<br />

questioning Martin Guptill’s place in the<br />

BLACKCAPS World Cup squad during the warmup<br />

games in the lead up to the tournament.<br />

To say that he put to rest any doubts about his<br />

talent and ability to deliver on the big stage<br />

would be an understatement. His 237 against<br />

the West Indies was an innings that will live<br />

long in the memory for those who saw it and<br />

was one of the finest in New Zealand colours.<br />

He emerged top scorer for the World Cup, along<br />

the way posting another century to add to the<br />

two that he’d put up for the Mondiale Aces in<br />

the Ford Trophy on his way back to BLACKCAPS<br />

colours. It was a season of record breaking<br />

achievement for Martin to which he deservedly<br />

added the title of Auckland Cricketer of the Year.<br />

Men’s Batsman of the Year<br />

Colin Munro (Howick Pakuranga)<br />

Colin Munro would probably have topped<br />

1000 runs in the Plunket Shield but for injury<br />

ruling him out of the last round, and he scored<br />

368 runs in the Ford Trophy at an average of<br />

over 52. But the innings that made this season<br />

special was that record breaking knock in<br />

Napier - 281 runs off just 167 balls, and a world<br />

record 23 sixes. It was an innings that may<br />

never be bettered and was a perfect illustration<br />

of what a devastating talent Colin can be.<br />

Women’s Batsman of the Year<br />

Sara McGlashan (Auckland University)<br />

Winning this award made it two in a row<br />

for Sara and it came off the back of another<br />

impressive season for the Hearts. She<br />

was the Hearts standout batsman in their<br />

successful one day campaign posting 476<br />

runs at a superb average of 68, including two<br />

centuries, and all at a strike rate of 112.<br />

Men’s Bowler of the Year<br />

Michael Bates (Suburbs New Lynn)<br />

Michael is now almost synonymous with<br />

this award having it won it on a number of<br />

occasions including last year. He had another<br />

outstanding season for the Mondiale Aces,<br />

leading the wicket taking tallies in both the<br />

Ford Trophy and Plunket Shield and bagging<br />

67 wickets for the season. He also captained<br />

the side for a large part of the season and<br />

definitely led the way with the ball throughout.<br />

Women’s Bowler of the Year<br />

Regina Lili’i (Waitakere)<br />

The last few seasons have been ones of<br />

continuous improvement for Regina and this<br />

year she showed what a valuable asset she is for<br />

the Hearts. She was joint top wicket-taker in both<br />

Twenty20 and One day competitions, bagging<br />

12 wickets at 24 in the former and 5 wickets at<br />

25 in the latter, proving that she is now at the<br />

forefront of a potent Hearts bowling line-up.<br />

International Cricketer of the Year<br />

Martin Guptill (Suburbs New Lynn)<br />

In what was a fantastic World Cup for the<br />

BLACKCAPS Martin Guptill’s performances<br />

were at the forefront of their efforts. He was<br />

top run scorer for the tournament with 547<br />

40<br />

uns at 68.37, and hit two hundreds and one<br />

another excellent season on the domestic<br />

overall Club continued under his Chairmanship<br />

fifty, including that incredible record breaking<br />

scene this year as evidenced by his officiating<br />

until July 2012 when he stepped down, although<br />

237 in the quarter<strong>final</strong> in Wellington.<br />

in both the Georgie Pie Super Smash<br />

he remains involved as President and as a player<br />

Twenty20 and Ford Trophy one day <strong>final</strong>s.<br />

for the Presidents’ Grade team. He has brought<br />

Young Cricketer of the Year<br />

Matt Quinn (Cornwall)<br />

Matt Quinn now has three seasons of domestic<br />

cricket behind him and this year proved what<br />

an integral part of the Mondiale Aces line-up<br />

Club of the Year<br />

Symonds and Osborne Trophy<br />

Takapuna<br />

great drive, energy and leadership to Parnell<br />

and this award is recognition of the tremendous<br />

contribution he has made to the club.<br />

Club Cricketers of the Year<br />

IN DEPTH<br />

he has become. He picked up 44 wickets for the<br />

season, including 29 in the Plunket Shield at<br />

an average of just 21, in a competition where<br />

he was a leading wicket taker for the team.<br />

Representative Coach of the Year<br />

Nick White<br />

Takapuna have made this trophy their own in<br />

recent times with this victory being their fifth<br />

in the last six years. Both their Premier Men’s<br />

and Women’s teams had consistent seasons<br />

without winning trophies, whilst thier Premier<br />

Reserve side claimed the one day title.<br />

Premier Men – Carl Brungar (North Shore)<br />

Carl had a season to remember as he seemed<br />

to take wickets at will throughout the summer.<br />

He took an incredible 80 wickets for North<br />

Shore this season, including five 5 wicket bags,<br />

a best of 9/65 at an average of just 12.35. He<br />

had an exceptional season and raced away<br />

Both our Auckland A and Under 19 sides<br />

tasted national success and Nick was at the<br />

forefront of both those campaigns. He guided<br />

the Under 19’s to victory in that competition<br />

and was co-coach of the Auckland A team that<br />

totally dominated their national tournament.<br />

His contribution to both teams success<br />

was immense and this award was deserved<br />

recognition of his part in their victories.<br />

Carson Cup - Administrator of the Year<br />

Rod Smith (Parnell)<br />

Rod took up the post of Club Chairman in<br />

2004. The Senior club had recently moved<br />

headquarters from Orakei Domain to the<br />

newly reclaimed Shore Road Reserve where<br />

there was a desperate need for facilities. Rod<br />

was the driving force behind a number of key<br />

projects including the construction of new<br />

to the Club Cricketer of the Year title.<br />

Premier Women – Samantha Curtis<br />

(Waitakere City)<br />

This season completes a hat-trick for Samantha<br />

as she claims this title for the third year in<br />

succession on the back of another dominant<br />

season of club cricket. She scored 584 runs at<br />

an average of close to 60 and topped the wicket<br />

taking stakes with 25 scalps at a miserly 12.16.<br />

Aucklanders with New Zealand<br />

2014/15 was a hugely memorable season for the<br />

tournament tune up for both teams but also saw<br />

where Auckland had three representatives in the<br />

BLACKCAPS. In a season that started at home in<br />

Kyle Mills return from injury and play what<br />

team with Colin Munro joining Guptill and<br />

October and stretched to an away series in<br />

turned out to be his <strong>final</strong> international match. In<br />

McClenaghan.<br />

England finishing in June, the undoubted<br />

pinnacle was the side reaching a first ever ICC<br />

Cricket World Cup <strong>final</strong> after previously reaching<br />

six semi<strong>final</strong>s.<br />

Four Aucklanders were involved in the side<br />

across the season. All played their part in what<br />

was a season that will live long in the memory of<br />

ardent fans but also won new supporters of the<br />

game.<br />

The season didn’t start as smoothly as the team<br />

perhaps would’ve wanted coming off a test<br />

series win in the West Indies to lose an ODI series<br />

against South Africa. The series was memorable<br />

for a number of reasons with the earliest start to<br />

an ODI series ever and Mount Maunganui playing<br />

host to its very first international.<br />

Mitchell McClenaghan delivered the highlight<br />

from an Auckland perspective helping New<br />

Zealand avoid a large defeat in the second ODI<br />

recording his highest international score of 34<br />

not out. That came after he picked up two<br />

wickets in South Africa’s innings.<br />

After starting the season at home the side<br />

travelled to the United Arab Emirates to take on<br />

Pakistan starting with a test series, but as has<br />

been the theme in recent times no Aucklander<br />

featured across the three games. The <strong>final</strong> match<br />

of the series, which was drawn 1-1, was nearly<br />

called off following the passing of Phil Hughes,<br />

however it was decided the game would<br />

continue with New Zealand eventually winning.<br />

The test was Daniel Vettori’s last for New Zealand.<br />

The BLACKCAPS then took on Pakistan in two T20<br />

matches and five ODIs. The honours were shared<br />

in the shortest format of the game before the<br />

Kiwis took out the ODI series. In a squad that was<br />

rotated throughout both series Kyle Mills,<br />

Mitchell McClenaghan and Martin Guptill all<br />

offered useful performances, as players started to<br />

push their claims for the home summer and in<br />

particular the CWC squad.<br />

Next on the BLACKCAPS agenda was a home<br />

series against Sri Lanka starting with the historic<br />

return of international cricket to Christchurch<br />

the Wellington game Mills took 2/29 in a New<br />

Zealand victory drawing the curtain on a fine<br />

international career. Mills at the peak of his<br />

powers was ranked the number one ODI bowler<br />

in the world. In an international career that ran<br />

for more than a decade he made a substantial<br />

contribution and became a valuable leader to<br />

the New Zealand side. Martin Guptill also made<br />

valuable runs in the series, silencing some of<br />

those questioning his position.<br />

New Zealand’s first match in the tournament saw<br />

them take on a familiar opponent in Sri Lanka,<br />

and Martin Guptill was part of an impressive<br />

opening stand with Captain Brendon McCullum<br />

that showed off the attacking nature the team<br />

would employ throughout the rest of the<br />

tournament.<br />

The pool phase highlight for Guptill was a<br />

hundred against Bangladesh in New Zealand’s<br />

<strong>final</strong> pool match that helped guide the side to<br />

victory. The Bangladesh match was also Mitchell<br />

McClenaghan’s only opportunity during the<br />

tournament where he had a difficult time against<br />

a Bangladeshi line up playing their shots.<br />

The quarter <strong>final</strong> will be long remembered as one<br />

of New Zealand’s finest cricketing moments as<br />

Martin Guptill faced the first and last balls of the<br />

innings on his way to notching not only the<br />

highest ever ODI score by a New Zealander but<br />

also the highest ever in a World Cup. The right<br />

hander sent the West Indies bowlers all around<br />

Wellington Regional Stadium with his shot<br />

making including onto the roof. Guptill’s majestic<br />

innings helped New Zealand to a strong position,<br />

with the bowlers then booking the team a trip to<br />

a semi<strong>final</strong> at Eden Park. The semi<strong>final</strong> was again<br />

the scene of another classic fast start for the<br />

Kiwis thanks to Guptill and McCullum. Being<br />

quick out of the blocks was vital with a big total<br />

to chase after a rain shortened South African<br />

innings. That quick start set up what was a<br />

chaotic finish culminating in a Grant Elliot six<br />

that sent New Zealand into a <strong>final</strong> with Australia.<br />

Guptill made a modest contribution in the <strong>final</strong><br />

on a day that was very much Australia’s.<br />

Auckland will this season have two contracted<br />

BLACKCAPS players – Guptill and McClenaghan.<br />

The one thing that Auckland Cricket and<br />

Mondiale Aces fans would undoubtedly like to<br />

see in the season ahead is Martin Guptill cement<br />

his place in the test side and hopefully be joined<br />

by some other Auckland representatives.<br />

Four Auckland Hearts players were centrally<br />

contracted to New Zealand Cricket last season<br />

and a total of seven were part of the WHITE<br />

FERNS High Performance squad. The four<br />

centrally contracted players were Katie Perkins,<br />

Sara McGlashan, Holly Huddelston and Sam<br />

Curtis. Maddy Green, Georgia Guy and Natasha<br />

van Tilburg joined those four in the High<br />

Performance squad.<br />

The WHITE FERNS had a difficult season not<br />

having won an ODI series since early 2014. The<br />

side went down away to the West Indies and<br />

India and at home to England. They had better<br />

luck in the shorter format of the game with a<br />

drawn series against the West Indies and victory<br />

away against India.<br />

In their first series of the season the side suffered<br />

a clean sweep defeat to the West Indies in ODIs.<br />

Hearts players Sam Curtis, Sara McGlashan, Katie<br />

Perkins, Georgia Guy, Holly Huddleston and<br />

Maddy Green featured in the series. In what was<br />

a tough series for all the WHITE FERNS<br />

particularly with the bat, Georgia Guy stood out<br />

taking regular wickets and giving away few runs<br />

with her spin bowling.<br />

Following the ODI series the side drew a T20<br />

series with the West Indies. Katie Perkins offered<br />

some very useful contributions with the bat<br />

including a not out helping to guide the team to<br />

their first win of the series.<br />

Next on the agenda for the WHITE FERNS was a<br />

tour from England to play both ODI and T20<br />

series. Hearts Anna Peterson, Katie Perkins, Sara<br />

McGlashan and Georgia Guy all featured in the<br />

series. It was another tough stretch for the side<br />

going down in both formats. However the T20<br />

series did see Anna Peterson make her debut for<br />

IN DEPTH<br />

and the first Boxing Day test in several years. No<br />

Auckland player was involved in the series but<br />

the BLACKCAPS took it out two nil. The sides then<br />

moved into a seven match ODI series designed to<br />

prepare both sides for the CWC. With a 4-2<br />

victory New Zealand dominated the series as<br />

players pressed for tournament selection.<br />

Mitchell McClenaghan was again handy with the<br />

ball taking useful wickets whilst Martin Guptill<br />

had a mixed time with the bat, which led to some<br />

calling for change at the top of the order.<br />

The next visitors to New Zealand shores were<br />

Pakistan who arrived for two ODIs before the<br />

Guptill’s form in the CWC and then in several<br />

county cricket outings earnt him a recall to New<br />

Zealand’s test side for the first time since early<br />

2013. Guptill had a mixed return to the test arena<br />

making two scores of 70 and two of 0.<br />

Following a drawn test series England and New<br />

Zealand played out a five match ODI series that<br />

was dominated by the bat. In a series eventually<br />

won by England Guptill continued his excellent<br />

ODI form but Mitchell McClenaghan was part of a<br />

bowling group that was punished on both sides.<br />

The teams also played out a sole T20 match<br />

New Zealand in that format.<br />

After a disappointing home summer the team<br />

traveled to India to play both ODI and T20 series.<br />

The Indian tour was a closely fought encounter<br />

with the WHITEFERNS going down 3-2 in the ODI<br />

series and pipping the Indians 2-1 in the T20<br />

series. Hearts Katie Perkins, Anna Peterson,<br />

Maddy Green and Georgia Guy all featured on<br />

the tour. All made useful contributions including<br />

another notable performance from Katie Perkins<br />

helping to guide the side to a victory during the<br />

T20 series with 23 not out.<br />

CWC. This series not only acted as a <strong>final</strong><br />

Matches at Eden Park<br />

New Zealand’s international cricketing<br />

experiences have always been strongly<br />

linked to Eden Park but few could have<br />

imagined the excitement that two thrilling<br />

World Cup matches would generate and<br />

what they would add to the Park’s unique<br />

place in New Zealand cricket history.<br />

Eden Park hosted five international matches<br />

over the course of the season. The first between<br />

the BLACKCAPS and Sri Lanka which was<br />

abandoned because of rain, was played just<br />

long enough for Martin Guptill to find some<br />

much needed runs. The rain-interrupted<br />

affair gave little clues to the fireworks that<br />

were to come in the ICC Cricket World Cup.<br />

Prior to Eden Park’s first game of the tournament<br />

between Australia and New Zealand much of<br />

the buildup focused on the ground’s dimensions<br />

and if the BLACKCAPS could maintain their<br />

early form. There were bold predictions of<br />

huge scores and it being a tough day for the<br />

bowlers. What followed was a thrilling see-saw<br />

affair that saw New Zealand go from a remarkably<br />

dominant position, rarely seen against Australia,<br />

to the absolute brink of defeat. Thanks to some<br />

outstanding bowling and fielding by New Zealand,<br />

Australia was skittled for just 151 in the 33rd over.<br />

That performance in the field had whipped<br />

the first cricket full house seen at Eden Park in<br />

many years into a frenzy. Chants and applause<br />

rang loudly around the ground and not just for<br />

wickets. New Zealand’s innings started in the<br />

manner in which BLACKCAPS fans had become<br />

used to in the CWC with Brendon McCullum<br />

and Martin Guptill exploding out of the blocks,<br />

adding to the clamour and excitement.<br />

However in typical Australian fashion the team in<br />

gold clawed their way back into the match and<br />

suddenly the crowd had gone from ecstasy to<br />

despair as New Zealand lost the wickets of Milne<br />

and Southee in consecutive balls to leave them<br />

needing six runs with just one wicket in hand.<br />

To the crowd’s glee and relief Boult kept out the<br />

<strong>final</strong> ball of Starc’s over to put Kane Williamson on<br />

strike. Despite many having faith in Williamson’s<br />

abilities with the bat, few would’ve guessed he<br />

intended to finish the match in one stroke. As<br />

he lofted Pat Cummins back over his head for<br />

six into the South Stand he sent the crowd into<br />

pandemonium and capped off an amazing day of<br />

cricket.<br />

That excitement however was just a taste of<br />

what was to come at Eden Park. The ground<br />

had a further two pool matches to go, with the<br />

four teams involved being some of the most<br />

competitive at the tournament with hugely<br />

passionate fans.<br />

First up it was Pakistan and South Africa who<br />

many had pegged as pre-tournament favourites.<br />

Pakistan had a mixed start to the tournament<br />

and desperately needed a win in the game. South<br />

Africa were also eager to prove their claims to the<br />

title. What followed was a tense rain shortened<br />

encounter where Pakistan felt they were a few<br />

runs short in setting their total. However thanks to<br />

44<br />

14/10/15 1:20 pm


the shot sent not only the ground but also<br />

S U M M A R Y<br />

some excellent pace bowling and despite the best<br />

efforts of inspirational South African captain AB de<br />

Villiers the Pakistani side were victorious. The win<br />

kept their quarter <strong>final</strong> hopes alive and delighted<br />

their supporters who stuck with them through<br />

the rain and created a colorful atmosphere in the<br />

ground.<br />

The <strong>final</strong> pool match staged at Eden Park was<br />

between India and Zimbabwe. As had been shown<br />

the previous summer having India come to play<br />

creates a unique and special environment. The<br />

same was true for the CWC match with local and<br />

traveling Indian fans packing into Eden Park, and<br />

Zimbabwe also had some vocal supporters of their<br />

own. The Africans fashioned an impressive total<br />

batting first with talismanic batsman Brendan<br />

Taylor crafting a fine hundred in what would be<br />

his <strong>final</strong> game for his country. With 287 to defend<br />

Zimbabwe would’ve felt they were in the game<br />

when they got India’s top four out relatively<br />

cheaply. This in turn created some nervous India<br />

supporters, however much to the pleasure of those<br />

fans their hero MS Dhoni along with Suresh Raina<br />

came to the rescue. The pair helped India ride<br />

into the knock out stages on a victorious run.<br />

Eden Park’s last match of the CWC was<br />

potentially the finest and most thrilling. Making<br />

a World Cup <strong>final</strong> is significant for any team<br />

but for the two sides who met in this game it<br />

was particularly special. South Africa had long<br />

been tagged as tournament chokers with all<br />

the talent but none of the metal to close out,<br />

while New Zealand was yet to make a <strong>final</strong><br />

despite six semi appearances. The <strong>final</strong> would<br />

be a huge moment for both teams. In front<br />

of another packed house at Eden Park South<br />

Africa took the game to the BLACKCAPS despite<br />

losing their openers cheaply. Runs to Du Plessis,<br />

Miller and their captain AB de Villiers helped the<br />

Proteas post an imposing 281 off just 43 overs.<br />

Set 298 to win off 43 overs New Zealand<br />

needed another special start from McCullum<br />

and Guptill and that’s exactly what they got as<br />

Brendon McCullum in particular sent the Proteas<br />

bowlers to all parts of the ground. However<br />

much like in the thriller against Australia just<br />

weeks earlier the BLACKCAPS lost regular wickets<br />

until it came down to the two oldest players in<br />

the team, Grant Elliot and Daniel Vettori, to try<br />

and guide them home. Elliot had played a calm<br />

innings so far helping with Corey Anderson to<br />

keep his side in touch with the asking rate.<br />

In the <strong>final</strong> over Vettori managed to get Elliot on<br />

strike with two balls to go. Elliot needed just one,<br />

dispatching a Dale Steyn delivery into the South<br />

Stand and sending New Zealand into a first ever<br />

World Cup <strong>final</strong>, and his country of birth out of<br />

the competition. In the words of TV commentator<br />

Ian Smith “Grant Elliot! Superman!” the shot<br />

sent not only the ground but also much of the<br />

country into delirium. The match also ended<br />

New Zealand’s hosting of the ICC Cricket World<br />

Cup and a hugely successful summer of cricket<br />

for Eden Park. The country also enjoyed a large<br />

surge in interest in the game boding well for the<br />

international and domestic calendar to come.<br />

Auckland Cavaliers<br />

The motley collection of washed-up has-beens<br />

and dreamers looking to relive past glory<br />

that is the Auckland Cavaliers continued its<br />

programme of matches in 2014-15. We took on<br />

three school First Elevens, Croatia New Zealand<br />

and returned to Queenstown in early April in<br />

the hope of defending our NZCPA Masters title.<br />

School matches<br />

First-up in late November was a trip to Sacred<br />

Heart College where we enjoyed another very<br />

enjoyable day with Phil Berrill’s very well-drilled<br />

unit. The absence from our line-up this season<br />

of SHC old boy Matt Quinn levelled the playing<br />

field somewhat but we still managed a win on<br />

a wicket that had good bounce and carry.<br />

Opening up, skipper Richard Jones looked<br />

in imperious touch as always, but wickets<br />

fell steadily and it took a magnificent 87 (ret)<br />

from Adrian Dale to rebuild the innings from<br />

67/4. He received excellent support from John<br />

Vujnovich (37), Blair Hendren and Dane Watson,<br />

while Michael Stephens made a mockery<br />

of his place in the order, something he was<br />

not shy about sharing with the rest of us.<br />

Despite demanding new ball bowling by<br />

Dean Askew and Stephens, Sacred Heart<br />

started their quest for 233 in positive<br />

fashion. At 87/3 they looked well-placed,<br />

but the introduction of Watson (5-22) turned<br />

the tide and 101/5 soon became 140/7<br />

and they were eventually all out 150.<br />

At the end of January we travelled to St<br />

Kents where we were pushed every step<br />

of the way by Greg Haines’ young but very<br />

talented side. Early in the afternoon, Dean<br />

Askew showed the boys the value of line and<br />

length, while debutants Darrin Crook and<br />

Steve Pearson gave a very good account of<br />

themselves with bat and gloves respectively.<br />

But it was Bryan Young’s fine 68 not out with<br />

a torn hamstring that proved the difference<br />

in our quest for 206, and the boys bold<br />

showing ended when Kerry Walmsley hit the<br />

winnings runs from the penultimate ball.<br />

Rain ended our chances of reclaiming the<br />

Tom Hellaby Memorial Cup at Kings in<br />

mid-March but to be fair it put us out of our<br />

misery. Kings were well on top and looked<br />

likely to be chasing a total of around 100,<br />

which we would have struggled to defend.<br />

Croatia New Zealand<br />

A Twenty/20 match against Croatia New Zealand<br />

rounded out the regular season programme.<br />

We were magnificently hosted by the Cro’s at<br />

Ken Maunder Park in what was a nice addition<br />

to the fixture list and one that provided<br />

many of the guys heading to Queenstown<br />

with a hit-out in the shorter <strong>version</strong> of the<br />

game. For the record, we came away with a<br />

win in a nail-biter after posting just 126/6.<br />

Dane Watson topped the scoring with 47 and<br />

later took two wickets, as did Tane Topia and<br />

Guy Coleman in our host’s reply of 115/9.<br />

Queenstown Masters<br />

As always our trip to the NZCPA Masters<br />

Tournament in Queenstown was the<br />

highlight of the season and in 2015, for<br />

the first time in many years, we journeyed<br />

down as defending champions.<br />

First-up we played and managed to overcome<br />

Canterbury thanks to good runs in quick time<br />

from Guy Coleman, and debutants Darrin<br />

Crook and Ian Billcliff. Four miserly overs from<br />

Grant Thorpe piled on the pressure and the<br />

Mainlanders folded for 107. Scores: Auckland<br />

160/7 (Coleman 37, Billcliff 32, Crook 30)<br />

defeated Canty 107 (Thorpe 2/9 from 4 overs).<br />

Next we took on Central Districts for a place in<br />

the <strong>final</strong>. Things did not go well to start, with<br />

a very demanding Central attack making life<br />

difficult on a challenging wicket. A score of 139<br />

proved just enough, however. Grant Thorpe’s<br />

<strong>final</strong>-ball six and 2 for 14 from four overs proving<br />

the difference. Scores: Auckland 139/6 (Crook<br />

37 ret, Thorpe 23*, Pringle 21) defeated CD<br />

138/5 (Thorpe 2/14 from 4, Coleman 2-30)<br />

We met Northern Districts, the other unbeaten<br />

side, in a <strong>final</strong> played in freezing conditions after<br />

a cold front that closed Queenstown airport<br />

the next day, blew in on Sunday afternoon.<br />

Batting first, we gained early momentum on<br />

the benign QEC surface thanks to an explosive<br />

opening stand between Guy Coleman (35) and<br />

Ian Billcliff (53*). Martin Pringle (38*) and Darrin<br />

Crook (35*) hit their stride through the middle<br />

and we ended with a commanding 219-4.<br />

ND stuttered in reply when skipper Kerry<br />

Walmsley snared wickets in each of his first<br />

two overs, but they fought back boldly and<br />

threatened to go close, their 169 probably<br />

a winning score on most other days. Back<br />

to back Masters and four in the tournament<br />

team - Billcliff, Coleman, Crook and Walmsley –<br />

made for a highly successful end to what was<br />

another very enjoyable Cavaliers campaign.<br />

The Auckland Cricket Development Foundation<br />

(ACDF) was established in September 2001<br />

by the Auckland Cricket Association.<br />

College, Takapuna Grammar School, Howick<br />

College, Green Bay High School, St Pauls<br />

College, Rosmini College and Albany Junior<br />

ProBatter also continues to be well<br />

utilised and is aiding in the development<br />

of players from around the city as use<br />

It is a charitable trust created with a view<br />

to establish and invest a capital sum, to<br />

help secure the long term future of cricket<br />

in the Auckland region. The Foundation’s<br />

grants are given to projects that assist in the<br />

development of cricket in Auckland with<br />

the prime target area being junior cricket.<br />

The ACDF appeals to potential donors<br />

(individuals or companies) prepared to<br />

contribute - in the knowledge their donation will<br />

benefit cricket in Auckland. Foundation funds<br />

will not be consumed by day-to-day operating<br />

expenses incurred in running the game.<br />

Since its inception the ACDF has made steady<br />

progress in building its capital fund and at<br />

the same time has been able to instigate a<br />

number of targeted projects including the<br />

establishment of player scholarships, the<br />

funding of artificial pitches and the provision of<br />

development opportunities for junior teams.<br />

Now in its fourteenth year the Foundation is<br />

pleased to report that the capital fund has grown<br />

to $389,000, a long way towards our prime<br />

objective of building a capital fund of $500,000.<br />

From the income from these capital reserves we<br />

were pleased to support a number of initiatives<br />

across schools and player development areas.<br />

The school projects included installing new<br />

wickets at Sancta Maria College, Baverstock<br />

School, Parakai School, Kedgley Intermediate<br />

School and Sylvia Park School. Wicket renewals<br />

were funded at Waitakere College, Birkenhead<br />

High School. Nets were renewed at Mt<br />

Roskill Intermediate and Northcote College.<br />

Takapuna Grammar was also given funding<br />

for training equipment for their winter<br />

cricket programme that included both skills<br />

work and strength and conditioning.<br />

Outside of school, ACDF funding has also<br />

helped purchase more gym equipment for<br />

the Auckland Cricket High Performance<br />

Centre. This extra equipment means the area<br />

will be available to more players at once and<br />

further assist programmes like the Developing<br />

Future Aces and Developing Future Hearts.<br />

Instead of a maximum of four athletes being<br />

able to use the gym area as in the past, 16<br />

athletes can now use the facilities. Funding<br />

also helped Auckland Cricket purchase two<br />

portable inflatable cricket nets. These nets<br />

will greatly add to <strong>ACA</strong>’s ability to promote<br />

cricket and enhance their presence at<br />

community events such as Diwali, club open<br />

days and regional sports festival days.<br />

Two initiatives funded by the ACDF for the first<br />

time last year are now entering their second<br />

year and are thriving because of the initial<br />

support given by the Foundation. Cricket<br />

Blitz, which the ACDF provided assistance<br />

in purchasing equipment for, continues<br />

to attract strong numbers of participants<br />

and draw young people into the game<br />

and into clubs. In its first season 128 teams<br />

participated in Cricket Blitz and even greater<br />

numbers are expected across this season.<br />

increases. Hearts, club and school players in<br />

particular are benefiting from ProBatter.<br />

The ACDF would also like to acknowledge<br />

the support of our excellent new sponsors<br />

Kookaburra, Duke and Tiger Turf who have been<br />

important in helping us carry out our work.<br />

As we look ahead to the 2015/16 season,<br />

cricket in Auckland will undoubtedly face<br />

new and varied challenges. However the most<br />

significant challenge we always face is how to<br />

keep our children in the game that we love.<br />

We are already seeing before the season has<br />

started very positive signs of increased interest<br />

in the game with club registrations up. This<br />

momentum is something we need to seize<br />

upon and use for the future benefit of cricket.<br />

The ACDF can help seize upon that<br />

momentum. Contributions to the Auckland<br />

Cricket Development Foundation make a<br />

major difference for cricketers of all ages.<br />

Better facilities, better coaching and better<br />

opportunities will ensure new generations of<br />

cricket followers are around for years to come.<br />

On behalf of all my fellow trustees and the<br />

Auckland Cricket Association, I look forward<br />

to continued progress in achieving the<br />

objectives of the Foundation through the<br />

ongoing support of the many contributors.<br />

Gillette Cup Auckland Final<br />

Westlake Boys’ High are the Auckland<br />

Secondary School Gillette Cup winners and<br />

will represent Auckland at the national Gillette<br />

Cup tournament in Lincoln in December.<br />

Melville Park was the backdrop for the<br />

Auckland <strong>final</strong> between arch-rivals Rangitoto<br />

and Westlake Boys. Westlake won the toss and<br />

decided to bat but the team struggled against<br />

some tight Rangitoto bowling to eventually<br />

capitulate to 111 all out. Only the skipper,<br />

William O’Donnell, showed some grit for his 31.<br />

In reply, Westlake came out firing on all cylinders<br />

and bowled superbly. Angus McKenzie and<br />

Keegan Russell excelled to take four wickets<br />

each, managing to knock over Rangitoto<br />

for 74 in the 25th over, allowing Westlake a<br />

comfortable 37-run victory in a low-scoring <strong>final</strong>.<br />

Westlake Boys 111 (W O’Donnell 31)<br />

District Tournaments<br />

Jones<br />

t<br />

ad<br />

Congratulations to the teams listed below<br />

for their success in the 2014/15 District<br />

tournaments and to Eastern for winning<br />

the Peter Badley Shield, which represents<br />

their strength across the age groups.<br />

District Tournaments remain an important<br />

part of the Auckland Cricket pathway. Whilst<br />

the focus of Auckland Cricket will continue<br />

to be strong healthy clubs, it is accepted that<br />

district tournaments are seen as a “step up”<br />

from club and school cricket and a means of<br />

bridging the gap to representative cricket.<br />

These tournaments saw some<br />

significant change last season.<br />

The competitions were split by school years<br />

with a focus on development at school years 7,<br />

8 and 9. These tournaments are structured to<br />

provide a meaningful and enjoyable competition<br />

In school years 10, 11 and 12/13 the<br />

tournaments became increasingly<br />

focussed on the more talented players<br />

to participate for Talent ID purposes.<br />

There was positive feedback from<br />

players and we look forward to further<br />

improvements for next season.<br />

for the vast percentage that do not move on to<br />

domestic cricket with a strong retention focus.<br />

National Club Championships Auc<br />

The 21st edition of the National Club<br />

Championships took place at Cornwall Park from<br />

7 to 12 April.<br />

A fantastic week of cricket was capped by hosts<br />

and Auckland representatives Cornwall winning<br />

all six of their games to be crowned champions.<br />

Cornwall were joined in the <strong>final</strong>s by St<br />

Albans (Canterbury), Albion (Otago), Greerton<br />

(Northern Districts), Napier Old Boys (Central<br />

Auckland Cricket Societyand Supporters Club<br />

It has been another challenging year for<br />

day/night test to be playing using pink cricket<br />

for all of his support around the finance and<br />

the Society. Having such limited access to<br />

balls which should make interesting viewing. Our<br />

secretarial functions over the last few years.<br />

the Bert Sutcliffe Lounge we are lacking<br />

thanks to the Commerce Club for the use of their<br />

have enjoyed for such a long time.<br />

facilities and the hospitality they have shown us.<br />

There have been gripes throughout the year about<br />

A big thanks to Mabel Todd, Club Manager<br />

Commerce Club for some evening functions<br />

be handed over to the organising committee<br />

job and has gone above and beyond what<br />

have been a great success and something<br />

so neither <strong>ACA</strong> or ourselves had any ability to<br />

would be expected to support us in our first<br />

we would like to build on going forward.<br />

Those who purchased the Boundary Club<br />

membership enjoyed access to the West Stand<br />

Lounge for the international against Sri Lanka,<br />

a pity that the weather didn’t allow a complete<br />

game – having Society member Peter McDermott<br />

as the guest speaker in the lounge however was<br />

most enjoyable and I know members also took<br />

the opportunity for a photo with the World Cup<br />

Trophy. Having the world cup tickets as part of<br />

the Boundary Club membership was outstanding<br />

and thanks to the <strong>ACA</strong> for the package that<br />

access any park facilities. We hope during the<br />

course of the upcoming season we will be able to<br />

regain some access to this facility. As previously<br />

mentioned we will also make more use of both<br />

the Waitakere Cricket Club and the Commerce<br />

Club for functions and our playing teams. We have<br />

discussed at length within the committee the<br />

falling membership of the Society and have got a<br />

plan in place for the upcoming season to hopefully<br />

improve this situation. The <strong>ACA</strong> has again agreed<br />

to continue to look after the financial and<br />

secretarial roles and we are very grateful for this.<br />

year with Waitakere Cricket. With the success of<br />

this arrangement the management committee<br />

have cemented the arrangement after the<br />

trial scenario of last season. We look forward<br />

to this relationship being a long term one.<br />

I want to thank the Management Committee of<br />

Kevin Broderick, Peter Danilo, Dan Healy, Rowly<br />

Potter, and Geoff MacLeod-Smith and our very<br />

active President Angus Fletcher for their support,<br />

and to Chris Rosie for his professional approach to<br />

producing and editing Straight Drive. I should also<br />

make special mention of new committee member<br />

IN DEPTH<br />

was offered this season. While the cricket on<br />

We have run two playing teams through the<br />

Trevor Auger who has added much value this year<br />

the field was excellent and we were treated to<br />

2014-5 season, our presidents side not aligning<br />

and is working hard on updating our website.<br />

four fantastic games of cricket at Eden Park,<br />

the service and quality of the food and drinks<br />

for spectators was very average. You only have<br />

to travel to Australia to see how much better<br />

stadiums can be run. The worst part about it was<br />

with our other teams at Waitakere but forming a<br />

partnership with the University Club and no longer<br />

playing as a Society team. Our One Day 3A team<br />

played out of Waitakere and our Social team used<br />

Te Atatu Park and the facilities at the Waitakere<br />

The Committee is very appreciative of members’<br />

commitment to the Society at this time.<br />

sitting in the Lower West stand looking at the<br />

Cricket Club as our home base. Games being<br />

empty and closed lounge normally used for the<br />

played out there was a great success, although<br />

Boundary Club members, the hugely inflated<br />

the second half of the season for the Social team<br />

tickets for lounge access having gone unsold.<br />

was unfortunately badly affected by weather and<br />

The Society did run a very enjoyable dinner<br />

function at the Commerce Club during the evening<br />

of the world cup one day game from Wellington.<br />

The evening was a bit shorter than planned due to<br />

Tim Southee and Brendon McCullum destroying<br />

the English team but nonetheless the evening<br />

was enjoyed by all. We will be running a similar<br />

other teams struggling to field a side. A thank<br />

you to Kevin Broderick for his organisation of this<br />

side and also the core group of players who have<br />

assisted on match days to ensure these games run<br />

smoothly. More people to act as match managers<br />

to help with the organisation of the social team<br />

for the upcoming season would be very helpful.<br />

event in late November centred around the test<br />

We have received good support from the <strong>ACA</strong><br />

against Australia in Adelaide, this being the first<br />

and especially Iain Laxon for which we are very<br />

grateful. A big thanks as well to Phil Armstrong<br />

AUCKLAND CRICKET UMPIRES AND SCORERS ASSOCIATION<br />

2014/2015 REPORT<br />

The year began with an agreement with the Umpires and Scorers Association to enhance the position<br />

of Umpire Administrator - a part time contracted operational role with governance and direction<br />

input from the ACUSA Executive. Other administrative and financial support is available through<br />

<strong>ACA</strong> staff. Doug Cowie accepted the role, reporting to the <strong>ACA</strong> Community Cricket Manager.<br />

The role involves managing availability & appointments; collating umpire reports and feedback; accreditation;<br />

recruitment of new umpires through a Community Umpires Programme; training; input for selectors & exchanges;<br />

communication; liaison between ACUSA & <strong>ACA</strong> and NZCUSA/NZ; equipment & clothing; and meeting preparation.<br />

ACUSA now has a new Executive, Chaired by David Middleton. This executive’s role has changed to one<br />

of governance, as life’s priorities today means less time available by volunteers. The working relationship<br />

with <strong>ACA</strong> has been very supportive and continuation of the new direction is strongly recommended.<br />

Appointments - The policy is to appoint best umpires to the highest grades and to make prudent appointments<br />

to ‘difficult & special’ matches within grades. Priority is: pre-Christmas - Premier Men, School 1st X1, Premier<br />

Women, Premier Reserve. After Xmas: Premier Reserve matches become second priority. Finals are key matches<br />

in all grades. Special midweek school fixtures and district events are additional with separate fee structures.<br />

Club match days require 48 umpires to fill all major <strong>ACA</strong> appointments. Another 50 umpires<br />

are needed to manage key lower grade matches and protect the Spirit of Cricket.<br />

We currently have 51 active members who average 17.5 days of umpiring per season. This<br />

usually leaves us about 30 unappointed matches each game day. Availability varies from<br />

week to week and changes occur right up to match day morning, which makes settling on<br />

an acceptable schedule very difficult. 952 appointments were made this season.<br />

8 x Club and School Umpire training evenings were delivered. Club follow up<br />

however was not profitable – 3 new umpires joined ACUSA.<br />

Training & Development –fortnightly training evenings focused on improving practical umpiring<br />

and umpire competency, learning from real game situations as well as law. Average fortnightly<br />

attendance is 27. 36 umpires also attended the pre-Season weekend training workshop.<br />

Visiting Guest Speaker – The World Cup provided an opportunity to access the<br />

ICC Elite Panel Umpires – Richard Kettleborough provided a whole evening of<br />

education where local umpires could hear tips from the ICC’s top man.<br />

Exchanges (Learning experiences). Successful exchanges to: Melbourne – Di Venter; Central Districts / Hawkes Bay<br />

– Fidel Jaary; Northern Districts – Kerry Dawe. Private and NZC exchanges: Roger Woolmer to UK; Akshay Sureka<br />

to Adelaide, and Jason Fletcher to Sri Lanka. Wayne Knights (NZC) to Australia; Phil Jones (NZC) to Queensland.<br />

<strong>Report</strong>ing and Feedback - Umpires’ personal match feedback continues to be available directly from the<br />

Umpires Administrator on request - either in the form of emailed match reports or summaries. Captains<br />

improved communication to both praise and pass additional constructive comment is appreciated.<br />

Clothing and Equipment - New off-field polo shirts were issued to members. New on field – (light blue) and<br />

new stumps and templates for markings were provided as required. Priority for the season ahead is new<br />

jackets. Investigations for carry bags for the new season will continue – budget or sponsorship permitting.<br />

Accreditation and Assessment - Each season umpires are accredited according to the NZCUSA<br />

guidelines. Performance, Availability, Training Attendance and Qualifications define an umpire’s<br />

levels. Higher levels also require evidence of planning, and leadership. Accreditation levels<br />

are reviewed mid-season and umpires may also request an accreditation review.<br />

NZCUSA requires Top 10 list of umpires to be nominated for vacancies<br />

in the Reserve Panel at the end of each season.<br />

Auckland’s members on NZC Panels for 2015-16:<br />

Elite Panel 2015-16<br />

rights to, variable returns from its involvement<br />

with the entity and has the ability to affect<br />

those returns through its power over the<br />

entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated<br />

from the date on which control is transferred<br />

Income is recognised for the period to<br />

which it belongs using accrual accounting.<br />

Accounts Receivable<br />

Accounts Receivable are valued at<br />

estimated net realisable value.<br />

Fixed Assets and Depreciation<br />

Fixed assets are recorded initially at cost.<br />

Depreciation is provided on the straight line<br />

method at rates calculated to allocate the<br />

cost less estimated residual value over the<br />

estimated economic lives of the assets. The<br />

current rates of depreciation are as follows:<br />

Computer Equipment 33.33% - 20%<br />

Furniture & Fittings 33.33% - 20%<br />

Ground Equipment 33.33% - 20%<br />

Office Equipment 33.33% - 20%<br />

Sundry Assets 33.33% - 20%<br />

Motor Vehicles 33.33% - 20%<br />

Inventory<br />

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost,<br />

on a first in first out basis, and net<br />

realisable value with appropriate provisions<br />

for damage and obsolescence.<br />

Changes in Accounting Policy<br />

There is no change to accounting policies.<br />

All policies are applied on a basis consistent<br />

with those used in the previous year.<br />

Comparatives<br />

Some prior year numbers have been restated<br />

to provide more meaningful comparison.<br />

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT<br />

TO THE MEMBERS OF<br />

AUCKLAND CRICKET ASSOCIATION INCORPORATED<br />

<strong>Report</strong> on the Financial Statements<br />

We have audited the financial statements of Auckland Cricket Association Incorporated (‘the Association’) and its Subsidiary<br />

(together the ‘Group’) on pages 58 to 62, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as at 31 July<br />

2015, Consolidated Statement of Financial Performance and Consolidated Statement of Movements In Accumulated Funds<br />

for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.<br />

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Statements<br />

The directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in<br />

accordance with New Zealand Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing Standards and Statements of Standard Accounting Practice with<br />

differential reporting recognition, measurement and disclosure concessions and for such internal controls as the Directors<br />

determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material<br />

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.<br />

Auditor’s Responsibility<br />

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our<br />

audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Those standards require that we comply with<br />

ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements<br />

are free from material misstatement.<br />

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial<br />

statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material<br />

misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor<br />

considers the internal controls relevant to the Group’s preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and<br />

fair view of the matters to which they relate in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,<br />

but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls. An audit also includes<br />

evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates, as well as<br />

evaluating the presentation of the financial statements.<br />

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.<br />

Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, the Group.<br />

Opinion<br />

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements on pages 58 to 62 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial<br />

position of the Group as at 31 July 2015 and its financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with the New<br />

Zealand Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing Standards and Statements of Standard Accounting Practice.<br />
