Dockers Cup
This week our Years 7, 8 and 9 girls had the opportunity to trial for the 2019 Dockers Cup carnival teams. The Year 7 trial took place on Tuesday morning before school from 7:00-8:00am and the Years 8/9 trial was run after school from 3:30-4:30pm. The skills displayed throughout the trials were very impressive.
Congratulations to all the girls who were successful in team selection.
Training will take place every Tuesday in the lead up to the competition:
- Year 7s – Tuesday 7:00am-8:00am
- Years 8/9s – Tuesday 3:30pm-4:30pm
We wish both teams the best of luck for the carnival day on Thursday 7 November.

ACC Representative Cricket Team 2020
Player nominations are now open for the ACC Representative Cricket Team 2020 for the match against the Combined Government Schools on the 13 March 2020 at the WACA ground. Net selection trials will be held in mid-late November 2019 (dates/venues TBC) and a final selection trial match will be held on Friday 6 March 2020 at Murdoch University Ground.
The representative match against the Combined Government Schools team is scheduled to be played at the WACA in 2020. This is an unbelievable cricket opportunity and all schools are encouraged to nominate quality players for this highly regarded match. All players selected receive an ACC “baggy yellow” cricket cap from the association.
The ACC is now calling for nominations from interested and talented players. On-line nominations are due to the ACC by Friday 8 November 2019.
The process for nominations is as follows:
- Students complete their nomination form on-line on the ACC web site
- http://www.accsport.asn.au/interschool-sport/representative-teams/cricket/nomination-form-players
- ACC will auto reply to each individual student when the nomination on-line has been received.
- Students to give a copy of their completed nomination form to their school sports coordinator (for school records only)
Positions for players are open to all cricket players that will be enrolled at the school in 2020; players MUST be of representative quality. There is no age restriction, but being an “open” age team, selected players are usually in Years 10, 11 or 12 and must be capable of playing at U18 level.
Information about net selection trials in late November 2019 will be provided to players and schools ASAP once nominations are finalised. Players that were selected in the final team earlier this year or who are national or state representatives do not have to attend the net trial as they will be automatically passed through to the trial match in March next year.
Attached is the flyer for the students. For more information please contact Trent Sharpe at the ACC on 9241 5298 or trent.sharpe@cewa.edu.au
