Player suspension
All registered players and clubs in any association must comply with the rules of that
association.
This requirement applies to the extent that the registered players and clubs are members of the
association or are otherwise bound to comply with the rules of the association (for example, by
agreeing to do so in registration forms and the like).
Registered players and clubs will be bound by any disciplinary hearing/suspension decision of
the association.
Other associations may also be bound by disciplinary hearing/suspension decisions of another
association (this will depend on whether there is a requirement for associations to recognise
disciplinary hearing/suspension decision of other associations).
To the extent that an association is not bound by the disciplinary hearing/suspension decision
of another association, the association would still be expected to comply with the spirit of the
decision.
For example, if a player has been suspended by an association, the suspension should also be
recognised by other associations.
If a disciplinary hearing/suspension decision of the association has been made in accordance
with the rules of the association there will be limited grounds to set aside the decision.
Any right of appeal will be set out in the rules of the association. If a player or club has been
suspended this is not a ground for discrimination in itself.
If a player claims that they have been discriminated against, then this will be subject to an
action outside the hearing processes of an association and will be heard by an external body in
accordance with discrimination laws.
Any person who is currently serving a suspension or disqualification imposed upon that person
by a cricket association affiliated with or recognised by Cricket Australia shall not be eligible to
play or be registered as a player or coach of any club until that suspension or disqualification
has been served.
No club or association or region shall be entitled to register a person as a player or a coach who
is currently serving a suspension or disqualification imposed upon that person by an association
or region or peak body affiliated with or recognised by Cricket Australia until that suspension or
disqualification has been served.
For the purposes of this provision, the appearance of the person's name and suspension expiry
date on the "Suspended Players" list below shall constitute prima facie evidence that the player
is legitimately suspended.
Each club shall be responsible to ensure that all of its players are eligible to be registered.
Player suspension process
When an association deems a player to be suspended in accordance with the regulated
suspension/disciplinary process, the association is to notify their peak body of the player's
name and registration and date of expiry of suspension.
The peak body is responsible to provide this information to Cricket Victoria with its
endorsement that the suspension has been dealt with appropriately.
Cricket Victoria will then publish the player's name and registration and date of expiry of
suspension on the Cricket Victoria website.
