Club Policies

Overview:

All players, officials, office bearers and members are expected to abide with the Code of Conduct as laid down by the SCA and NSWCA in the Competition Handbook. Any person reported by any member of the club for breach of the Code will be subject to disciplinary action by the MWDCC Discipline Committee, irrespective of whether the person is officially reported under the Code of Conduct.

The MWDCC Discipline Committee has the power to discipline a player by dropping him or her to a lower grade, fining , suspending or terminating him or her from MWDCC if it is deemed that he/she has brought cricket and/or MWDCC into disrepute in whatever shape or form.
