Code of Conduct
“The spirit of cricket is, of course, about the behaviour of players on the field – acceptance of decisions, respect for one another, integrity. But it is also about an enthusiasm for the game; not just aggression but also to share a sense of fun. And fun is what life is all about.” — Martin Crowe, MCC Cowdrey lecture 2006.
SNLCC takes a dim view of players and teams that do not play in line with the MCC Spirit of Cricket Guidelines, ( https://www.lords.org/mcc/the-laws-of-cricket/preamble-to-the-laws-spirit-of-cricket ) and this includes parents of Junior Players. By registering at our club, you agree to follow the following guidelines and will be subject to any SNLCC or ACA Disciplinary Decisions.
