Start times, formats, and surfaces for mixed and girls competitions across the past three seasons.
Competition formats, days, and start times are set each year by the North Shore Junior Cricket Association (NSJCA) in collaboration with local clubs. They can shift from season to season based on player numbers, ground availability, and interest. The coming season is not yet confirmed.
That said, most competitions run year after year with little change. The table below shows the last three seasons so you can get a clear sense of what to expect.
