Guiding
Principles
We
believe:
- In "fair play" in sports.
- In the enjoyment, growth and personal achievement team members realize through their participation in games and positive healthy lifestyle
- In respecting the diversity of needs, interests and abilities among team members.
- In the educational value of interaction among team members, coaches, and community members provincially, nationally and internationally
-
In supporting partnerships with other organizations who share our values and objectives.
The Academy is based at The Inverhaugh Cricket Club, and has access to the facilities of that club. Members of the Inverhaugh Junior Cricket Teams may be drawn from members of the Academy, although membership is not a prerequisite for selection for an Inverhaugh Junior Team.
The Academy supplies the coaching expertise which is used in regular coaching clinics at Inverhaugh
The Academy supports youth initiatives in High School Cricket within the Waterloo-Wellington region. This has recently included support in the organisation of Winter nets at one High School. In addition, the Academy has assisted the formation of an Inter-High School Tournament, providing technical (umpiring) and organisational help the allow this to happen in both the Summer and Autumn terms.
