Good afternoon members,
As promised, please find attached the following documents:
- Playing Conditions & Enforcement Options
- Return to Play Practical Guidelines
Message from Lauren Atkinson:
Cricket Australia has released Return to Play Practical Guidelines (Attached) which have been developed to assist local Associations in providing COVIDSafe guidelines to manage the game within their local area. They are recommendations which can be implemented in full or adapted by each Association as they see fit. Ultimately these guidelines are designed to provide support to the cricket community, however the ongoing advice provided by relevant government Chief Medical Officers and the Department of Health remains the ultimate authority on dealing with COVID-19 within each State and Territory – that latest information always being available on the QC website – Return to Play page.
The Cricket Australia guidelines cover:
- Cleaning of the ball
- Checking the condition of the ball
- Placing of the ball at the taking of a wicket or end of a session
- Transferring the ball at the completion of an over to a new bowler
- Storage of equipment during play
- Setting up and remaking of the stumps during play
- Scoring matches
- Team sheets & coin toss
- Matches impacted by COVID-19
- Player & Staff COVID-19 Etiquette for training & matches.
