What you’ll do:
- Guide the strategic direction of GNC.
- Oversee governance, risk, and financial sustainability.
- Champion diversity and participation across all levels of cricket.
- Act as an ambassador for cricket in the Hunter region.
This is a voluntary role requiring attendance at Board meetings (approx. 8–10 per year) and key community events.
Why join us?
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to shape the future of cricket in Greater Newcastle. You’ll be part of a dynamic, forward‑thinking Board with the backing of Cricket NSW, Country Cricket NSW, and Cricket Australia.
