Representative teams are selected by the Hawkesbury DCA to provide the opportunity for players to further develop their skills by playing against other talented cricketers from outside of the Hawkesbury area.
The New South Wales Districts Cricket Association (NSWDCA) conducts Inter-Association compeititons amongst its affiliated associations, (of which Hawkesbury DCA is a member) for junior boys, junior girls and seniors. Matches in various age groups and for boys, girls and seniors are played on Sunday's (as club matches are played Saturday's) and are generally scheduled through October/November with finals for the juniors being played early in December of each year.
To be eligible for selection in a representative team, a player must be registered with and play for an affiliated club within the Hawkesbury DCA. Junior players will be eligible for selection only in the youngest junior representative team for which their age permits. For example, if no U/10 representative team is formed, then club players of this age group are permitted to trial and be selected in the U/11 representative team should they be capable. A players age must be under the age group as listed below at midnight on the 31st August of the current cricket season.
The Hawkesbury DCA Representative Cricket Advisory Guidelines describe what is expected from those involved in representative cricket. A copy of the guidlines can be read and/or download by clicking on the following link;
