SCORING

provides 5GB and doesn’t expire for 12 months.
2. First Grade – Ensure that the Total Cricket Scorer Live Scores licence is renewed
on the Scorer’s Laptop by following the instructions contained within the CNW
Bulletin. It is vital this is done to enable live scores to broadcast from the
weekend’s matches.
3. First Grade – Turn on the Scorer’s Laptop and run any necessary Windows or
software updates. You don’t want the laptop to automatically install updates
and restart halfway through scoring the game!
4. First Grade – Appoint a Scorer and ensure they are familiar with using Total
Cricket Scorer.
5. Second Grade – Provide the Team Captain with a scorebook and ensure they
have pens to complete scoring duties with on the weekend. Please note 2nd
Grade matches can also be scored electronically using Total Cricket Scorer or the
MyCricket Scorer App.
TEAM CAPTAINS
1. First Grade and Second Grade – Ensure the team captains have a Team Sheet
Book. They need to write down their team and present a copy to the umpires
and opposition captain at the toss.

required Kookaburra White 4-piece 156-gram match balls for the weekend’s
games. Remember that 2nd Grade will play two games.

register, then click “Add” and “Update”. This will register the players with CNW.
