After winning their Grand Final last year in the Wright Shield, our First XI is playing in the ECA's highest grade, the Dunstan Shield. This is a very competitive grade and suitable for high level cricketers wanting a challenge.
The team is captained by former Sri Lankan test player Suraj Randiv and it's common to play against current and former professional cricketers in this grade.

The Second XI currently competes in the ECA D Turf competition. This level is suitable for those wanting a good mixture of competitive and casual. The Second XI is also a great proving ground for those wanting to play in our top grade.
