Otago Country Cricket Philosophies & Job Descriptions


The OCCA is fully aligned with New Zealand Cricket’s and Otago Cricket’s strategic plans around various ‘Age & Stage’ and ‘Balance is Better’ philosophies and as such it is important that our volunteer coaches, managers and people involved understand these philosophies.
 
At Junior and Youth District Cricket Level, District coaches are  required to have completed Police Vetting and Vulnerable Children Modules online via the NZC system. Coaches also require a minimum of an Advanced Foundation Coaching Certification for Year 8 teams down and a Development Level Coaching Certification for Year 9 and above teams e.g. the Year 9/10 (U15) and Year 11/12 (U17) and U19 teams.
 
If your level of certification is below the required level you will need to work with Sam Bastin at Otago Country Cricket to upgrade your certification to the required level prior to going to any cricket festivals or tournaments with a district team.
 
Enthusiasm to learn, coach and manage the players through the season is obviously a big part of the job as well.
Below you will find various documented policies. Please click on the links and read these documents before applying by entering your details and submitting the contact form by Friday 10 September, 2021. Your application will be considered by the Otago Country Cricket Board who will be in contact by 1 November, 2021.
