Indoor Cricket
You can’t beat Indoor Cricket for a great night’s entertainment for adults and a perfect game for juniors. Played on a synthetic surface incorporating a full-length pitch, fully enclosed by netting, allows for high scoring excitement with no delays. As in traditional cricket, the basic skills of running, hitting, fielding & throwing are the backbone of the game. But a softer ball, innovative format and scoring system ensures a safe game and non-stop Action!
Teams consist of six (6) players with an optional reserve (super-sub). Games consist of two innings of twelve (12) overs. Each player bowls 2 overs and bats for 4 overs allowing equal participation for all involved. Grades are available for senior Mens, Ladies, Mixed and Junior teams of all standards – novice, social or competitive.

GETTING STARTED WITH INDOOR CRICKET…
Action is all about enjoying yourselves socially. Here are some tips on getting a team together:
- Don’t necessarily try and gather an entire team before you register.
- Get interest from 3 or 4 friends & nominate for a trial game, this sets a date to get started.
- Encourage your friends to each recruit 1 or 2 of their friends for the trial game.
- When you have played together under trial/beginner conditions you’ll soon discover how much fun it is and the only problem you’ll have is cutting back the numbers.
