CRICKET NOTES When the First XI have a Home fixture, the Fourth XI, Year 10, Year 8 and Year 6 teams also play ‘home’ matches. Remaining teams play away. When the First XI have an Away fixture, the Second XI, Third XI, Year 11, Year 9, Year 7 and Year 5 teams will play ‘home’ matches. Remaining teams will play away. It is important to remember that by signing up to Cricket, as with all sports and activities at TGS, it is expected that boys will be committed to each training session and fixture throughout the season. In extenuating circumstances, it is the responsibility of the player to notify coaches, or the Head of Cricket, if they are unavailable to play well in advance of a fixture. With training sessions, boys are also required to notify coaches or the Head of Cricket if they are unable to attend.
SUPPLEMENTARY ROUND While the GPS Cricket Season is structured as per the above draw, unfortunately, not all Schools have the same number of teams. In the spirit of attempting to provide a cricket experience for our boys every Saturday, teams who do not have a match as part of the regular draw are then placed in the “Supplementary Draw”. Being added to the Supplementary Draw may result in a TGS team playing against a different opposition to what the draw above would suggest. It may also require matches to be played at different venues. The Supplementary Draw is updated regularly, and players and parents are to carefully check the weekly draw publication to confirm the venue and game time each week. Every effort will be made to provide all teams and players a game in Round 5.
