Sunday League

What is Sunday League?

Sunday League is a competition run by the Western Bay of Plenty Cricket Association, catering for three age groups - Years 7/8, 9/10 and 11-13.

In its current format there are T20 rounds and finals pre-Christmas and a longer format competition after Christmas.

Sunday League is designed to:

  • give players opportunities to play cricket on a grass wicket where possible.
  • create or maintain links with clubs as players move through the college years
  • allow players to further develop their skills

How are the squads selected?

To express interest in playing in the 2024/25 Sunday League, please e-mail mmjc.membership@gmail.com 

NOTE: For a player to play Sunday League they must also be in a Saturday team. Sunday League is not intended to be an alternative to regular Saturday junior cricket.

Players are assigned to teams based on a number of factors including:

  • current or previous club ties
  • school
  • location
  • family ties
  • travel considerations

In consultation with WBOPCA, the teams may also be moderated to try to ensure an even spread of talent and cricketing roles.
