There is no over-80s competition yet, but given good health, VCV expects to see one in about five years&#8217; time.<\/p>\n<p>Players are a mix of those who stopped regular cricket in their thirties, those that have continued the summer ritual throughout their later years, and newcomers to the sport.<\/p>\n<p>Turning to <a href=\"https:\/\/timesnewsgroup.com.au\/surfcoasttimes\/sport\/veteran-cricketers-to-return-to-mt-moriac-for-annual-challenge\/\">veterans cricket<\/a> gives a new lease on your cricketing life as you again are playing against others in the same age profile.<\/p>\n<p>The regular 40-over-a-side competition starts in October and runs until March.<\/p>\n<p>Matches are played on Sundays, usually from 11am to 5pm, with a barbecue and chat after the game generally observed.<\/p>\n<p>Players have varying levels of ability, from one long-retired Test player through to those who have never played cricket before.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone gets a bat and a bowl &#8211; each team must use seven bowlers.<\/p>\n<p>Boundary cones are set a little closer to the wicket than is usually the case, but there are no other restrictions except the player&#8217;s own physical limitations, which means it is rarely seen that batsmen run three.<\/p>\n<p>Run-outs are contingent on fielders not fumbling the ball, so tend to be rare, and fielders cannot really be relied on to take catches &#8211; but if they do, the celebrations are lengthy.<\/p>\n<p>While the players might lack the athletic ability of their salad days, and club matches are mostly light-hearted, the underlying competitive spirit remains.<\/p>\n<p>VCV also participates in several national carnivals each season. These competitions allow players who in earlier times would never have dreamed of representing the Big V the chance to live their childhood cricketing fantasy.<\/p>\n<p>Recently there has been a move to representative carnivals in age groups split by five years rather than 10 &#8211; over 50s, over 55s, over 60s, and so on &#8211; which gives a larger number of players the opportunity to represent their state.<\/p>\n<p>The best players can go on to compete for Australia. A team recently returned from England after competing for the Grey Ashes.<\/p>\n<p>But for many, the highlight is a week-long end-of-season carnival in Echuca, bringing together teams from across the state and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>There exists a great future for veteran&#8217;s cricket, and the VCV is keen to continue to grow the sport and get more people involved.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, email VCV secretary Craig Martyn at <a href=\"mailto:secretary@vcv.org.au\">secretary@vcv.org.au<\/a> and you will be put in touch with a local club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VETERANS Cricket Victoria (VCV) is on the lookout for new players as the new season begins.
