Dear Kwik Cricket Coordinator
THE ASDA KWIK CRICKET TOURNAMENT 2011
The tournaments for 2011 are being run in the same format as they have over the last 2 very
successful years. In 2010 we had a 36% increase in the number of schools involved with 136
taking part. The calendar across the County has been structured through partnership work
between the Gloucestershire Cricket Board, the local Competition Managers and the PDM’s
and are all being run during a ‘Cricketing fortnight’.
Each tournament is being run at a local Cricket Club to provide each of the participants an
opportunity to play and be seen by the local club and their coaches. The tournaments have
been organised around the Schools Sports Partnerships, inviting the primary schools to their
own specific partnership tournament at a club near them (see below).
If however, your school cannot attend the date designed for your partnership then you can
attend one of the other dates provided (see final sheet in pack which identifies each of the
festivals on offer in 2011). The tournaments are open to all pupils up to the age of 11 (as at
midnight on 31st. August 20010) at state Primary and Middle Schools.

Tuesday 19 July - 10.30am – Derbyshire CCC
Schools can only enter one of the dates given for each type of tournament. We would still like
to attract as many teams as possible from each of the schools so there is no limit on the
number of school team entries into an individual tournament.
The places will be taken on a first come first serve basis. If we have a resounding response to
these festivals, like we hope, then we shall put on additional festivals on the same day as those
already planned (we have reserve grounds ready).
To enter a team/s into the Yr6 and/or the Girls Tournaments then please complete the reply
slip at the back of this pack and return it to the GCB office complete with all details as
requested or email me at the address below with your entry numbers and details. Closing date
for entries is Friday 6th May.
To help with your preparation for the festival please see attached the full rules and also a score
sheet which will help in the build up to these very fun festivals.
If you have any queries then please contact me on the numbers or email address below.
The aim of the tournament is to provide children of all levels of ability and experience with
an opportunity to participate in cricket and encourage fair participation by all.
Kind Regards

ASDA Kwik Cricket Tournament 2011
Rules
1.
Aim
1.1. The enjoyment for, and fair play by, all players.
2.
Pitch
2.1. Two sets of wickets, 16 yards apart.
3.
Teams
3.1. Each team comprises of 8 players. Squads are limited to 10 players.
3.2. Quotas pertaining to mixed sex teams have been abolished.
3.3. In the event of injury to a player, a substitute will be allowed to field, but not bowl. Should such an
injury prevent the player batting, a substitute will be allowed to bat only with the permission of the
opposing member of staff.
4.
The Start
4.1. The two teams toss a coin to decide which team has the choice of either batting or fielding first.
5.
The Game
5.1. Throughout the Tournament each game shall consist of one innings per team, each innings to be 8 overs
long.
6.
Batting & Scoring
6.1. The batting side shall be divided into pairs, each pair batting for 2 overs, with a new pair starting at the
end of the second, fourth and sixth overs.
6.2. Each team starts batting with a score of 200 runs.
6.3. Each time a batter is out, 5 runs are deducted and the other batter of the pair faces the next ball.
6.4. A batter may be out bowled, caught, run out, stumped, hit wicket.
6.5. There is no LBW law unless the batter deliberately blocks the ball with a leg or foot.
6.6. Runs will be scored in the normal way, as will byes.
6.7. 2 runs will be awarded to the batting team for each wide ball and no-ball bowled, but no extra ball will
be allocated, except in the final over of each innings when, in addition to the 2 runs, an extra ball will be
bowled. See glossary overleaf for details.
6.8. At the end of the first 2 overs, the first pair of batters retires and is replaced by the second pair until all 4
pairs have batted for 2 overs each.
6.9. The second team then bats for its 8 overs.
7.
Bowling and Fielding
7.1. Each player on the fielding side must bowl 1 over.
7.2. Bowling will take place from one end only.
7.3. Bowling should be over arm where possible.
7.3.1. At local district competition overarm bowling should be encouraged with the first ball of each
over overarm every time. If no amount of coaching and encouragement can achieve overarm bowling,
even from a base start, then the rest of the over can be bowled underarm.
7.3.2. At County Finals underarm bowling is unacceptable and the ‘double bounce’ rule should be
applied i.e. if the ball bounces more than ONCE, or rolls along the ground before it reaches the popping
crease.
7.4. Players on the fielding side DO NOT need to rotate fielding positions.
7.5. With the exception of the wicketkeeper no fielder may field within 10 yards of the wicket, measured
from the middle stump except behind the wicket on the off-side. A fielder may move into the restricted
area to field a ball provided he/she was outside the area when the stroke was made.
8.
The Result
8.1. The team with the higher score wins. In the event of a tie the team taking more wickets will be the
winner. If it is still equal, each player bowls 1 ball at the wickets (no batter), with the team scoring the
higher number of strikes the winner.
8.2. Tied games will be possible in the National Final. See Appendix iii, Organisational Rule 4.
9.
Eligibility
9.1. Please note that the tournament is open to all pupils under the age of 11 (at midnight on 31 August
2010) at State Primary and Middle Schools in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Appendix ii: Glossary
10. An Over
10.1 An over consists of 6 balls.
11. LBW
11.1. In the very simple terms, a batter can be given out if the umpire feels that a ball, which hits the batter’s
leg, would have hit the stumps. This law will not be used unless a batter deliberately blocks or kicks
the ball away with the leg or foot.
12. Byes
12.1. If a batter misses the ball, or if it hits their body, they may still run and score byes.
13. Wide ball
13.1. A ball that is too far from the batter to strike will be called a wide. A ball will not be called a wide, no
matter how wayward it may be, if the batter manages to hit it.
13.2. If a ball results in more than 2 wides, they will be added to the batting team’s score and the two runs
for the wide will be ignored. For example, a bowler delivers a ball so wide it is missed by the
wicketkeeper and crosses the boundary for 4. 4 runs are given to the batting side, not 6.
14. No ball
14.1. If a ball bounces more than once before reaching the batsman, of if it reaches the batsman above
shoulder height without bouncing, it will be called a no ball.
14.2. A batsman may hit a no ball and if the shot results in 3 of more runs being scored, that score will count
and the 2 runs for the no ball will be ignored. If 1 or 2 runs are scored the batsman will be credited for
the 2 runs for the no ball.
