2026/27 Canterbury Country Cricket tournament & festival dates are here!

A huge thank you to Property Brokers for their ongoing support of Canterbury Country Cricket and helping make these opportunities possible for our young cricketers 💙❤️

From Year 11/12 tournaments through to primary festivals, there’s plenty to look forward to this season

Self-nomination links will be released soon, so keep an eye on our page for details and get ready to put your name forward!

It’s been great this season to see girls, boys and young cricketers from all around the Coast out there competing, improving and enjoying their cricket.

The game is in a really good place at junior level, and that comes down to the players, the parents, the coaches and everyone who helps make it happen each week. Thank you all for the time and energy you put in.

Keep warm over the winter… don’t worry, summer will roll around again before we know it — and with it, another cricket season 🏏 🔥 🐦‍🔥

As we wind up another season - the association wants to shout out to Michael Cook!

In his 2 seasons as GDO our cricket offerings have progressed significantly. We consistently hear how professional and supportive he is. He’s smiling (most of the time 😃 ) and he knows how to engage kids parents and schools!! We thank you for all you’ve done these past 2 seasons!! You’re a star ⭐️.

Sorry for the late call team. No Smash Play today. Bit wet at Arthur Fong Park. We will have another session next week instead!

What a season it's been!
Join us today at Arthur Fong Park for our last Smash Play Session of the season. 3:15pm start time.

Massive thank you to our umpires from Greymouth High School. Great fun had by all and we can't wait to do it all again in term 4!!

Junior Cricket Finals – Next Saturday 🏏

Our junior cricket has really grown this year. There’s always room to build and grow, and we’ll keep doing that in the seasons ahead — but it’s been great to see the progress across all teams.

We now look forward to Finals Day next Saturday at Arthur Fong Park:

Coast Girls Scorchers v Paroa Heat 🔥
(Arthur Fong 1; 9.30am)

Greymouth Phoenix 🐦‍🔥 v Westland Warriors 🛡️
(Arthur Fong 2; 9.30am)

These matches will be followed at approximately 12:45pm by a short presentation of season awards and certificates.

We’d love to see plenty of support down there to finish off the junior season in style.
