Indoor cricket gets underway

The Australian National Indoor Cricket Championships began in Springvale, Victoria on Sunday, July 15. No doubt local printing companies are investigating ways that the sport can be promoted using Print media. This comparatively new sport has lots to offer weekend sports stars of all ages.

Indoor cricket has six to eight team members playing in a court surrounded by netting, using a specially designed ball. The Indoor Cricket World Cup for men’s teams was started up in 1995 and Australia has won every cup so far. The Women’s team has been phenomenally successful as well, with seven cups under its belt.

In addition to the World Cup, there is a Masters World Series and a Junior World series held every three years. Indoor cricket was introduced to Australia by players from Germany and Australians were enthusiastic in adopting this fast-paced version of their favourite game. Indoor Cricket centres can be found in more than 100 locations.

The attraction of indoor cricket to social cricket players looking for a little more excitement should alert brochure printers to the possibilities of publishing Booklets informing people of the existence of the sport in their local area. In doing so, they may also want to point out the way in which the sport differs from outdoor cricket.

Clubs like Springvale are helping Victoria’s effort to give other states some competition in indoor cricket. This interstate rivalry should ensure that any local print company finds some interesting business opportunities in promoting this exciting and popular sport.
