PERSONAL HYGIENE & EQUIPMENT
  • Stay away if you or someone close has been unwell in the lead-up to returning to training.
  • Regular hand-washing (20 seconds minimum with soap) and use of hand sanitizer is strongly encouraged.
  • Cough/sneeze into the crook of your elbow or a tissue and avoid touching your nose/eyes/mouth.
  • Shaking hands and celebrations involving contact with another person (including high-fives) are all strongly discouraged.
  • No shining of any cricket ball with saliva at any time.
  • Sharing of practice balls, personal equipment and other incidentals (e.g. water bottles, towels) between players is prohibited.
  • Clubs are strongly encouraged to clean all door handles, taps, towel dispensers/hand dryers and toilet seats if used at a session prior to the next scheduled session taking place.

CRICKET VICTORIA | COVID-19 RETURN TO TRAIN
PHYSICAL CONTACT
  • Maximum of 5 people per net (subject to the number of nets available at each facility) with alternate nets used as preference (if net setup has 3 or more nets available).
  • Players are strongly encouraged to maintain 1.5 metres social distance from others as much as possible.
  • Clubs are strongly encouraged to avoid warm-up activities where tackling or potential heavy physical contact is likely.
  • Players to attend training by themselves with own means of transport (unless they reside in the same residence e.g. Parent/Child or Siblings). For Junior Players, parents/guardians are strongly encouraged to keep a safe distance away from the training area (e.g. stay in the car or be at least 1.5 metres away (preferably greater) from the training group when active).
  • Clubs and Associations are strongly encouraged to make sure that the weather conditions are suitable for undertaking cricket activities (e.g. avoiding slippery practice conditions after rain, not training during a lightning storm).
  • Plan on having breaks of at least 10 to 15 minutes between teams and groups training at the same venue to minimise crossover.
TRAVEL, COMPLIANCE & COMMUNICATIONS
  • Clubs are strongly encouraged to host any necessary communications (e.g. meetings, planning sessions, Meet the Coach sessions) through an online platform or hold these sessions over the phone.
  • Clubs are strongly encouraged to host training at their home ground location (should access to training nets be required) and to not engage in any practice matches until advised further.
  • Attendees at all training sessions are to have their Name and Contact details recorded by the club, with communications to players made prior to each session including access points and meeting locations.
  • Clubs and Associations should strongly encourage all members to download the COVID-Safe App, record members that have downloaded the app and have a club member undertake the Australian Government’s online COVID-19 Infection Control Training.
  • Further updates will be communicated to Clubs and Associations through the CV Club and Association Newsletter, Cricket Victoria website and Cricket Victoria social media platforms.
  • Sport and Recreation Victoria’s (SRV) webpage also has a whole host of further information on the return to community sport from a Government perspective

About Us.
The Ballan Cricket Club currently has 2 Senior teams and 4 under age teams competing in the Ballarat Cricket  Association for the 2020/2021 season.
Current teams for this season are: Senior 1st XI - BCA 2nd Grade comp , Senior 2nd XI - BCA 4th Grade comp.

And 4 junior teams;
BCA:U17 2nd XI, U15 2nd XI , U11 Seniors   & U13 2nd XI Spratling.


Our Under 11's play on Wednesday nights starting at 4.30pm.
Under 13's play on Friday nights starting at 5.00pm. 
Under 15 & 17's play on Saturday mornings beginning at 8.30am.

This last season saw another successful season with our Senior 1st XI taking out the Premiership without facing a ball due to Covid 19.  Ballan 
finished on top of the ladder after defeating Wendouree in the Qualifying Final . During the following week a decision was made by the BCA to cancel the remainder of the season thus leaving us as the Premiers.

In 2015/16 season, Cam Dunne won the top award for the 2nd Grade competition, with the Bernie Davey Medal, after Noel Heafield won the same award the previous season. 2018/19 saw Michael Snaith bring home the medal once again for the club.
Michael Snaith continues with the role of captaining our senior 1st XI, with Troy Connor taking on the 2nd XI captaincy with his return to Ballan cricket.
Both sides are, again, under the reins of Senior coach Mick Loughnane.


Under 11 coaches are Jenny Bates assisted by David Leach.
Under 13's have Troy Connor and Anthony McIlwaine as their coaches. 

Under 15's  are also with Anthony McIlwaine.
Lachie Snaith has taken on our Under 17 side with help from a couple of other senior players.


The 'Milo" cricket will be back on Thursday nights, with a name change. 'Woolworths Junior Blasters' again as there are a lot of kids who enjoy getting a start to their cricket careers.


 Training will still be at Ballan.

The Centurions supporters club is still continuing with the BCC to bring non playing members ( ex players & supporters alike) together to be recognized as a large and ongoing  part of the club.

Well done to all of our teams for the previous season & good luck for the current season.
  And many thanks to our sponsors and supporters.

As we have a lot of COVID requirements to be met we require a lot of assistance from parents to meet the requirements, if work load is shared it should only be a couple of times during the season.

We need to meet the requirements before we commence training, so we need parents to commit as well.
Junior players can register at playcricket.com.au . There is a $5 insurance levy that is required up front.

Senior players please let Senior coaches Mick Loughnane or Michael Snaith know, you can also register at play cricket.
