Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
The WADCCI has advised that all Retravision Shield round one matches on Saturday 2 October will continue as scheduled, following the precedent from 1990 when there was a clash between the District competition and the AFL Grand Final, which was rescheduled after a draw in the Qualifying Final.
It was decided to keep the fixtures as scheduled due to the availability of Retravision Warriors’ players for District cricket, which will give the squad members another opportunity to prepare for their first Warriors’ commitment against Victoria in the National One Day competition on Friday October 8.
Another factor is that there are no other Saturdays available for Third and Fourth Grade matches to be rescheduled, which would result in Round 1 matches being declared a draw.
PLAYING TIMES (ROUND 1)
First & Second Grades (Saturday & Sunday):
11:30am to 1:30pm
2:10pm to 4.10pm
4:30pm to 6:00pm
Third & Fourth Grades (One Afternoon game – Saturday):
11.50am to 2.45pm
3.05pm to 6.00pm
Under 17 & Under 15 (Saturday & Sunday):
8:00am to 11:40am

Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
I agree, especially in the lower grades... the lower grades don't like playing sundays, that's due to playing the day before on the saturdaay...
i'm sure they'd rather play this sunday than grand final day...

I suppose though, if you're playing at this level you should be committed.

Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
I'm sure the games could be changed to Sunday for one round and make them a one-dayer. Or they could be switched with an upcoming one-day fixture.
First Grade no question and you'd probably be right for Second and Third grade as well. Fourth Grade is no better than WASTCA First Grade so it really isn't all that important in my opinion.
The last time something like happened was 1990, so almost all of the guys playing now wouldn't have been playing back then. It's pretty stupid of the WACA to still have games on the biggest football day of the year and expect most of the state (which is an AFL one) to still play cricket. Like I said before there will be a lot of players who won't play simply because they'd rather watch the game so round one will probably be a bit of a joke to be honest.

Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
Obviously you haven't tried to construct a fixture before - to make wholesale changes and upset the balance of a side's home and away's and the number of two dayers is a big issue, especially with 5-6 days before the season starts. I reckon if a WA side was in the GF then there would have been more of a chance of an alternate outcome.
The decision had District Cricket's best interests at heart e.g. giving Warriors players another chance to stake claims for state honours one week before their first game is important as is the chance for 1s/2s players to stake a claim for a berth in their club's 1sts.
I don't buy into the Sunday argument for lower grades. I have heard enough over the years to know that players just don't like any form of Sunday cricket other than Colts (and many of those sides consist of 1s/2s players).
I agree with Mas Cambios' statement as well.

Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
The season is off and away in all four grades.
Only one ground affected by weather as far as I know (Abbett losing a couple of overs either side of lunch).
All 16 clubs fielding their full compliment of sides from 1sts to U15, with those preferring to watch footy over playing cricket getting their just desserts with a less than interesting finale.

Re: WACA Grade Cricket - 2010-11
I get down to alot of the Perth matches, big rap for Stewie Walters. Surry player who spends the Australian cricket season as captain of the side, fantastic first grade player.
Josh Nicholas also a quality bowler and youngster.
My 15 year old brother should play some Perth 3rd grade this year which is a good step for him.
