Hi Members, 

We hope you enjoyed the shout out to HCCC from Kyle Jamieson, also look out on Facebook for our message from Martin Guptill.  Like them we are gearing up and looking forward to the season ahead and we hope you are too. 

At this stage with the extension to Alert Level 4, we are all feeling a bit unnerved and are all concerned around how the lockdowns are going to affect the cricket season.

We have been advised that training and games can commence at Alert Level 2, but the logistics are still being worked on, we will confirm what that looks like once we have more information from ACA. 

With all this uncertainty we understand that many of you feel a little hesitant around payment and fees, all the details around refunds due to a shortened season can be found on our website here https://hibiscuscricket.co.nz/refund-policy
