Get Involved

Who can join?

We welcome new players of all backgrounds to UNSWCC. 

We will be a particularly good fit for you if you are:

• A current or prospective student, alumnus or staff member of UNSW

• An aspiring First Grade and/or professional cricketer

• A player coming through our junior pathway at Randwick JCC 

​

We have a long history of welcoming new players from regional & rural NSW, including several who have gone on to play for NSW and Australia. 

​

We also have one overseas player spot available in First Grade each year, usually filled by an aspiring England and/or County player in their off-season.

While we are a university club, we are also a community club and it is not a requirement to be a student of UNSW. 

How to join

The club fields six teams in the NSW Premier Cricket and Sydney Metropolitan Cup competitions as well as U21s (Poidevin-Gray) and U16 (Green Shield) teams. 

​

We typically keep a list of between 80-100 active players, including emergencies. Our primary intake is via new player trials in pre-season (August) each year.

We can also often accommodate players joining later in the season, for example, if you have just started university or just moved to Sydney. 

​

Our main requirements of new players are:

• Sufficient skill and commitment to play NSW Premier Cricket and/or Metropolitan Cup, including training 1-3x per week depending on the grade (the higher the grade, the higher the training expectation obviously)

• A desire to contribute to the aspirational and sociable culture of the club

• Timely payment of fees

​

1. Professional coaching team

2. ​Outstanding facilities, with our headquarters at UNSW’s “Home of Sport”, David Phillips Field in Daceyville

3. ​Convenient location, close to the Sydney CBD, Coogee Beach, and the SCG
