Cricket is believed to have it's origins date back to the 16th century when shepherds used their 'criccs' or hooks as bats. This "improvising attitude" is the essence of Backyard cricket that many New Zealander's young and old have been part of. Rubbish bins, boxes and sticks double as wickets as we play down hallways, back gardens, fields, beaches or even streets. We don't always count the runs and there are loud appeals, protests, and perhaps the odd broken window.
At North Otago Cricket we want to foster this life long love of cricket and have a talented team of "cricket mad" individuals who can help your school, workplace or club develop rewarding programs to connect your people through the game of cricket. Cricket really is a Game for Everyone so please get in touch.
