This event returned in 2015 after a ten year absence where it was realised that this event has been very much missed. Since it’s reintroduction, indoor cricket has been one of our most popular sports. The NSW Police Indoor Cricket Club supports this event and encourages all teams that competed at their State Championships in May to attend.
We would also hope to see lots of Local Area Commands (NSW Police Force) and other emergency service teams nominate a team into this great social event.
Indoor Cricket is played between 2 teams of 8 players. Each player must bowl 2 eight ball overs, and bat in a partnership for 4 overs. Each innings lasts 16 overs.
Please find the link below for the Official Rules of Indoor Cricket. The 2019 NSW Police & ES Games will abide by these rules. Should any rules be modified, they will be advised by Sports Coordinator in due course prior to the event.
