                                  Message from Mark Taylor AO

                         Firstly, I would like to offer my congratulations to the Northern
                         District Cricket Club and the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai & Hills
                         District Cricket Coaches’ Association (HKHDCCA) for this
                         great initiative. It is a wonderful partnership that provides
                         young local cricketers the opportunity to experience cricket in
                         other countries. Following on from the successful tour of
                         Sri Lanka two years ago, the tour this year will embrace the
                         West Indies and the USA.
                           I have great memories of trips to the West Indies and I know
                           the players and officials will enjoy the hospitality and
friendships that come with touring, as well as being great ambassadors for the game.
My recollections of touring the Caribbean in 1991 and 1995 with the Australian cricket team are of tough
competitive cricket, played in a relaxed and colourful atmosphere. I’m sure all tourists will enjoy not only the
cricket, but the entire Caribbean experience. To the whole touring party, I wish the very best for the tour and the
future. I know that all of us who love and watch the game of cricket are delighted to see these kinds of tours, which
provide for the development of cricket not only in Australia, but throughout the world. All the best.

Captain’s Report – Lachlan Shaw (On the field)
Match 1 (29 June 2017) – at Queens College, Husbands St James,
Bridgetown, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / Northern District CC U/15 9/124 [30 overs]
(C. Rose 50, L. Shaw 27, J. Armstrong 3/14) def. Queens College
U/15 7/66 [30 overs] (J. Fullagar 3/6, L. Shaw 2 stumpings) by 58 runs
Looking to start the tour off on the right foot, our first game was shaping
up for the players to leave a strong impression in Barbados. Up
against the Queens College we knew this would be a tough game from
the beginning. In trouble early, we lost a couple of quick wickets but
Charlie Rose (50) and Lachlan Shaw (27) formed a solid partnership to
get us to a reasonable total of 124. Wickets were hard to find
throughout the innings but runs were also dry for the home team
struggling but Jordan Fullagar was the stand out bowler with 3/6.

Match 2 (30 June 2017) – at Desmond Haynes Oval, Black Rock, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / Northern District CC U/15 6/204 [35 overs] (J. Camp 64no, W. Coffey 48, L. Shaw 39)
def. Graydon Sealy Secondary School 31 [19.4 overs] (C. Davenport 3/1, L. Roughley 2/1, O. Kirk 2/9) by 173 runs
We headed into the next match with the aim to build on our last performance. Batting first against the Graydon
Sealy Secondary school, we started off strong with Will Coffey (48) and Lachlan Shaw (39) building a strong
partnership at the top of the order. Jayden Camp finished off the innings in style with a brilliant 64 not out. Our
bowling attack displayed just how good they were ripping through the oppositions batting order, bowling them out
for 31. Stand out bowlers to Cooper Davenport (3/1), Lachlan Roughly (2/1) and Oscar Kirk (2/9).

Match 3 (2 July 2017) – at Desmond Haynes Oval, Black Rock, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 5/202 [35 overs] (C. Rose 64, L. Shaw 60 [109 run 2nd wicket partnership],
C. Miller 20no, J. Hiley 19, N. Forde 3/28) def. Desmond Haynes Young Lions Academy (Carlton Junior
Cricket) 74 [26 overs] (R. Williams 34, J. Hiley 5/16, V. Ravindran 2/10) by 128 runs
Now settling into the conditions and understanding each other’s abilities on the cricket field, we wanted to keep
putting the home teams under pressure. Up against the Desmond Haynes Young Lions Academy (known locally
as Carlton Junior Cricket), we knew that they would be a very strong opposition. We lost an early wicket but a 109
run 2nd wicket partnership steered us in the right direction with Charlie Rose (64) and Lachlan Shaw (60). A late
partnership with Corey Miller (20 not out) and Joe Hiley (19) got us to a good total of 5/202 after 35 overs. Our
bowling was once again very strong with Varun Ravindran (2/10) bowling an outstanding opening spell followed by
an extremely tight spell from Joe Hiley coming on the get (5/16) and the first 5 wicket haul of the tour (and Joe’s
first 5/for of his career).

Match 4 (3 July 2017) – at Combermere School, Waterford, St. Michael, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 5/131 [17 overs] (C. Miller 50, J. Camp 51no) def. Combermere School
U/15 44 [12.3 overs] (A. Jackson 3/1, L. Fisher 2/13, J. Baxter 2/13) by 87 runs
Now in our fourth match and looking to keep our winning streak alive, we were up against Combermere School
U/15 team. As a result of heavy rain we were left with a wet pitch, a change of grounds and a reduction to a T20.
Corey Miller (50) and Jayden Camp (51 not out) were the entertaining batsman to get going and hitting balls
everywhere. We put pressure on them early as a few bowlers and our bowling attack in general had a good day
with the opposition finding it extremely hard to score. Aidan Jackson (3/1), Lachlan Fisher (2/13) and Jarod Baxter
(2/13). A great all-round performance and another victory for the touring team.

Match 5 (4 July 2017) – at Empire Cricket Club, Bank Hall, Bridgetown, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 132 [31.4 overs] (J. Camp 28, J. Hiley 19, J. Baxter 18, J. Fullagar 16,
S. Marshall 2/8, N. Holder 2/9) lost to Combermere School U/17 194 [29.5 overs] (S Marshall 53, D Niles 45,
S. Braithwaite 37, L. Roughley 5/41, J. Camp 2/16, C. Rose 3 catches) by 62 runs
With the word getting around of our strong performances we were told to expect a much stronger opposition in
today’s game. The next opposition being Combermere School U17 it was well known that this would be our
toughest match yet. In an unusual manner for our boys, we didn’t start off well with the ball however found a way
to bring it back dramatically towards the middle. Lachlan Roughley’s impressive spell of 5/41 changed the game
with 3 excellent catches from Charlie Rose on the boundary. Jayden Camp also bowled very well with 2/16 and
brought the total back to an achievable 194 runs. With the bat, wickets consistently fell from the start, however
innings from Jarod Baxter (18) and Jordan Fullagar (16) provided the team with a spine to build off. Towards the
end of the innings Joe Hiley (19) and Jayden Camp (28) provided cameos that gave us hope and kept the match
within reach until the end.
                                                                                                                12

Match 6 (6 July 2017) – at 3Ws Oval, Cave Hill campus, University of the West Indies, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 79 [35.2 overs] (C. Davenport 11, L. Shaw 10, J. Camp 10, R. Headley
4/14) lost to Barbados U/17 National Team 7/275 [45 overs] (N. Reifer 85, Z. Clark 37, M. Forde 32, T. Gibson
29no, J. Camp 3/46, J. Hiley 3/47) by 197 runs
Moving into a new game and again looking improve, we also knew that the match would be a tough one against
the Barbados U17 National team. A great experience for all of the boys playing an older national team on a first
class ground. Losing the toss, we were sent in to bowl first and up against a strong batting line-up. The opposition
were strong throughout their innings despite the fight our boys put up with the ball and in the field. The two bowlers
who looked the part on the day were Jayden Camp (3/46) and Joe Hiley (3/47). By consistently putting the ball in
good areas they were able to build pressure and provide some breakthrough wickets. The opposition made their
way to an imposing 7/275. Only a few of our batsmen managing to hang in against their quick bowlers, only
Cooper Davenport (11), Jayden Camp (10) and Lachlan Shaw (10) were able to reach double figures.

Match 7 (7 July 2017) – at Franklyn Stephenson Academy, Cockade House, St Thomas, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 8/233 [40 overs] (C. Rose 64no, W. Coffey 54no [122 run unbroken
 th
9 wicket partnership], J. Camp 36, J. Fullagar 26, M. Simmons 3/25, N. Collymore 2/21) def. Barbados Cricket
Association U/15 Select XI 201 [38.2 overs] (J. St Hill 60, T. O’Neal 45no, J. Hiley 2/12, C. Davenport 2/38,
W. Coffey 2/41) by 32 runs
Looking for a fresh start after back-to-back loses, we were also now nearing the end of our time in Barbados.
Wanting to do well in every game remaining, we were now up against the Barbados Cricket Association U/15
Select XI who were a good young side. Our batting was very strong with people throughout the order managing to
build partnerships and post a few solid scores. Jayden Camp (36) and Jordan Fullagar (26) were strong early in
the innings, setting a good platform and later allowing for the development of the 9th wicket partnership between
Charlie Rose (64 not out) and Will Coffey (54 not out) to reach an unbroken 122 runs. This match came right down
to the wire but thanks to tight bowling and good fielding throughout, the boys were able to find a way over the line.
Three bowlers stood up and did particularly well including Joe Hiley (2-12), Will Coffey (2-41) and Cooper
Davenport (2-38).

Match 8 (8 July 2017) – at Franklyn Stephenson Academy, Cockade House, St Thomas, Barbados
Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 1/343 [38 overs] (L. Shaw 100 ret., L. Fisher 100 ret. [217 run unbroken
1st wicket partnership], C. Miller 65no, J. Baxter 39no [107 run unbroken 2nd wicket partnership]) def. Franklyn
Stephenson Academy 147 [35.5 overs] (J. Layne 50no, J. Fullagar 3/28, J. Baxter 2/22) by 196 runs
With a very successful tour nearing its end, the boys wanted to finish on a positive note by making the final game
in Barbados a memorable one. Against a solid young group of cricketers from the Franklyn Stephenson Academy,
we won the toss and decided to bat first. We set the tone from the beginning and posted a 217 run unbroken
1st wicket partnership, with Lachlan Shaw (100 retired) and Lachlan Fisher (100 retired) both scoring centuries.
Corey Miller (65no) and Jarod Baxter (39no) also posted impressive scores taking the touring to an imposing 1/343
off 38 overs. The bowling was again very impressive while also being a lot tighter than other days. With many
bowlers unlucky not to get the wickets they deserved, Jordan Fullagar (3/28) which would be his most talked about
wicket, knocking over Franklyn Stevenson himself and Jarod Baxter (2/22) were the stand out bowlers. Oscar Kirk
also entertained by impressively knocking over his older brother Henry, who was invited to play for the home team,
followed by decent send-off as he walked off. Varun Ravindran also bowled very well in his short spell and unlucky
not to get the wickets he deserved. A complete performance by the Coaches’ Association / NDCC U/15 team in
defeating the Franklyn Stephenson Academy in what was a great way to finish off the cricket on tour.
                                                     What an absolutely fantastic tour this has been. Fourteen
                                                     players were lucky enough to not only experience great cricket
                                                     in unfamiliar territory and climates, but to share this journey
                                                     with who was soon to become lifelong friends, is something
                                                     that none of us will forget.
                                                     A very special thank you goes to Bruce Wood for putting
                                                     together this amazing opportunity for us all and umpiring the
                                                     8 matches in Barbados in very warm conditions. The tour ran
                                                     like clockwork and when we were all enjoying ourselves, Bruce
                                                     was still thinking about the next thing that needed to be
                                                     organised.
                                                     Thanks also to the coaches, Rod Hokin and Josh Miller, for
                                                     the pre-tour training sessions, the individual planning and goal
                                                     setting, the match days, the constant mentoring and for the
                                                     overall fun we all had together. Our amazing parents can’t be
                                                     thanked enough. Thank you – the Barbados 2017 Tour will be
                                                     hard to top.

COACHES’ ASSOCIATION / NORTHERN DISTRICT CC U/15 T OUR – WEST INDIES & USA – 2017 – REPORT

Captain’s Report – Joe Hiley (Off the field)
And so began the journey of a lifetime, little did we know at the time
that this trip would stand out above the rest. One by one, we
gathered at the airport Coffee Club having our last drinks on home
soil, the bags had been sent through and the flight tickets had been
printed. We were ready to go. The excitement could be seen on
everyone’s face as we took our first step onto the plane, we took our
seats and buckled up for one of the longest flights we had ever been
on. The plane trip was rough for some, gentle for others, myself and
Lachlan Fisher took turns on sleeping in the footrest as it felt
somewhat like a bed at home.
We arrived in Los Angeles after a long flight and ventured to the
famous Universal Studios. Our team had a ball going on every
single ride we could – the boys really bonded well that day.
However, the long flight had crept up on a few of us as we left
Universal Studios with our eyes shut on the bus. We got back and had a sleep in a proper bed at our hotel.
Waking up at 4.00am wasn’t the greatest feeling, over 2 ½ hours in the airport then followed, but it was worth it in
the end as we boarded our next flight from LA to Miami. We landed in Miami with a 4-hour stop-over scheduled
before we took off for the last time. All the boys sat on the edge of their seats, eager to get onto the plane and fly
to Barbados, the centre of cricket in the West Indies. We hopped on our final flight, ready for the fun to begin.
Here we are, Barbados. We grabbed all of our things in a hurry before stepping into the warmth outside. All the
boys were talking about the excitement that builds, this energy continues until we take our bus back to the Butterfly
Beach Hotel. Everyone (including Rod & Josh) dash to their rooms after a small team talk about cabin groups. We
unpack and get straight into our swimming gear. This was where the true holiday began.
                                                            We found a small beach next to the Hotel, everyone
                                                            squeezed through the gate and ran for the crystal-clear
                                                            water that was before us. It was heaven! The water
                                                            was as warm as a bath, perfectly clear and was just
                                                            brilliant to be in. We splashed around for hours and
                                                            hours, enjoying every moment we could before getting
                                                            dressed and doing a light training session. We had our
                                                            dinner and went to our rooms, eager for our first game.
                                                          The team woke up in Paradise! We gathered at
                                                          breakfast which was a buffet filled with delicious food,
we had our team talk, packed and left for our first game. We had a win and celebrated on the bus with music,
cheering and of course the dreaded fines meeting. We got back and had a warm down and a stretch in the pool
before heading back up to our rooms to get dressed, ready for dinner. After an amazing meal with the whole team,
everyone got back to the hotel and went to bed, stunned by what an experience we had on the first day.
Many of the boys woke up earlier that next morning, wanting to swim in the warm beaches at 6.00am before
breakfast and our second match on tour against the Graydon Sealy Secondary School at Desmond Haynes Oval.
Kensington Oval was our next stop that evening as we went to watch the local T20 final, huge hits and great
catches were seen. Lachlan, Rod and myself were taken upstairs for an interview on live TV, we talked about the
tour and where we are from, before wrapping things up with an excellent speech from Rocket that covered all
bases. We headed home after a day filled to the brim with fun and pleasant surprise at the end.
The day that followed was a favourite of many on this tour, the catamaran day! We got to the site and boarded the
JAMMIN Boat that took us away into the sea, we went snorkelling and saw amazing ship wrecks and even a huge
turtle that swam beneath our feet. This continued before we got called back onto the boats, heading off to another
                                                           location. The team talked and bonded as we dropped
                                                           the anchor and went for another swim again, this time
                                                           with a $10 ride that sent us flying on an inflatable that
                                                           was dragged behind a speed boat. A smashing lunch
                                                           was provided before party hour. The parents and kids
                                                           gathered inside, we watched our parents lean back to
                                                           have shots poured into their mouths, the music was
                                                           pumping and the crowd was dancing, before we had a
                                                           competition with a rival catamaran. The day came to an
                                                           end when we hopped off and headed home, many of us
                                                           a little sunburnt. We headed up to a beach where we
                                                           had dinner as well.

COACHES’ ASSOCIATION / NORTHERN DISTRICT CC U/15 T OUR – WEST INDIES & USA – 2017 – REPORT

After our final game in Barbados against the Franklyn Stevenson Academy, we went back to our hotel and
unpacked our bags before saying goodbye to our amazing bus driver, Larry. The boys pulled $10 US each
together as a leaving present of $140 dollars. We said our final goodbyes, headed to our rooms and began to
pack up. After a final swim and a final team dinner, we went to bed for the last time in Barbados.
This day was a rough one for the boys, it started at 4:30am before being delayed even further at the airport, most
of the boys were more quiet than usual, realising that their time in Barbados had come to an end. The lads jumped
on the plane for Miami, seeing the last of Barbados through the small glass window on the plane. When we landed
in Miami, we had a short stop-over, giving us time to eat and talk about the best moments of our trip.
When we arrived in Los Angeles after the next flight, the boys settled down and grabbed their gear before hopping
onto a bus that took us to our hotel room, where we found out the sad news that the game the following day
against the Southern California Cricket Association had been cancelled was announced, the boys looked upset,
but eager to explore America. We put our stuff in our rooms before a swim and a meal, followed by sleep.
The boys woke next morning to the news that we were
touring the LA Angels Baseball Stadium at Anaheim; this was
an amazing day as we walked around each room and learnt
a little about baseball as well. The boys loved it and really
got stuck in when the guide told us about Mike Trout and his
record as one of the best baseball players of all time. After a
quick trip to the gift shop, the boys were taken to a shopping
outlet to spend more of our parents’ money! We picked up
expensive clothing for cheap amounts of money, along with
other things as well. After the shopping spree, we were
taken on a small drive around LA as we headed back home,
after a great meal and a chat with the team, we went to bed.
                                                     “DISNEYLAND” - the boys could not wait to crash through the
                                                    front gates. We went on rides as an entire team before
                                                    breaking into groups, my group discovered the fast pass secret
                                                    and got onto every single ride without waiting more than 10
                                                    minutes. We had a cracker of a day as it kept going. More
                                                    rides, more games and more fun as we grouped together to go
                                                    and watch the light show. The light show was astounding,
                                                    lasting more than 20 minutes with iconic movies thrown through
                                                    it. Truly a spectacular site. After an immense day at
                                                    Disneyland, the team and parents gathered at an arranged
                                                    dinner. We shared laughs, had fun, handed out awards, gave
                                                    speeches and took our final team photo.

Our final day on the tour took us to the Griffith Observatory
in the Hollywood hills for a couple of hours; the view was
amazing. Next stop was the Hollywood “Walk of Fame”
with the stars engraved into the walkway. We had a quick
look at Mann’s Chinese Theatre with the quotes from the
famous stars, along with their handprints. When we
departed for Santa Monica Pier, the boys’ energy had lifted
with excitement and adrenaline. We walked around the
iconic pier and ventured down to the super long beach
itself. A quick swim and some beach cricket had us
satisfied, before we enjoyed a Thai meal for dinner.

                                                      We boarded the bus for LAX and the boys talked about the
                                                      tour, discussing all the highlights. We arrived at the airport
                                                      and did the usual things, as we waited to be taken back to
                                                      Australia. The boys were quiet, we all knew what the other
                                                      was thinking. Everyone was going to miss this tour, the
                                                      friendships we built and the memories we had made would
                                                      never be forgotten. This was a trip I will never forget.
                                                      Special thanks to our tour officials, Rod, Josh & Bruce, plus all
                                                      the parents for making this memorable opportunity possible.

                   ROD HOKIN (HEAD COACH) – ASSESSMENT                                 OF    PLAYERS

NO.     PLAYER                                                BRIEF COMMENTS
                     Had a fantastic tour and was outstanding both on and off the field. Led from the front in terms of
        Lachlan      batting being our leading run scorer with 248 runs at an average of 41. His final innings on tour was
 1       Shaw        superb as he scored 100 retired off 80 balls. Behind the stumps he had an excellent tour as keeper
      (Co-Captain)   and as a Captain he led superbly by setting an outstanding example for the rest of the team both
                     through his performances but also his off-field maturity.
                     Was our leading wicket-taker with 12 wickets at an average of 10 and continued to show why he is
                     one of the leading spinners in his age group. He showed glimpses of his batting potential and with
 2     Joe Hiley
                     this hit the biggest six on tour. He captained the team well with positive intent and innovative field
      (Co-Captain)
                     placements. Off the field he shone with his culinary skills and his poached eggs were without doubt
                     something to savor.
                     Jarod showed excellent all-round skills during the tour. With the bat, his 39 not out off 28 balls in our
        Jarod        last game showed his ability to rotate the strike and score quickly, adapting to the conditions of the
 3                   game. With the ball, he bowled consistent lines and lengths and was rewarded with 6 wickets at an
        Baxter
                     average of 14. He also thoroughly enjoyed the experience off the field on tour as well.
                     Jayden had an outstanding tour and was rewarded with being named our best all-rounder. His
        Jayden       7 wickets at an average of 10 showed the potential he has as an off-spin bowler, with 3 wickets
 4                   against the National Under 17 team. With his batting Jayden discovered his power game, scoring
         Camp
                     an excellent 203 runs at an average of 51. Off the field, Jayden showed himself to be an
                     exceptional team person.
                     A player who just loves cricket and always gave 100% on the field. Will was named our best fielder
         Will        and on top of this played 2 exceptional innings with 54 not out against the Franklin Stephenson
 5                   Academy and 48 against the Desmond Haynes Academy. His leg-spin bowling also showed great
        Coffey
                     potential. However, despite his excellent all-round performances, Will was the only player not to
                     make it to Mars during the trip (‘in-joke’ from the tour).
                     An outstanding young man who showed exceptional maturity both on and off the field. Batting at
        Cooper       No. 3, his innings against the National Barbados Under 17 team was easily the most courageous
 6                   display on tour. Against some of the best fast bowlers in the country, his 58 balls (89 minutes)
       Davenport
                     innings held our team together. His bowling also shows plenty of potential and his consistent
                     off-spin saw him take 3 for 1 in 4 overs in our match against the Desmond Haynes Academy.
                     It was fantastic to watch Lachie score a century in our last match on tour. He is a genuine
        Lachlan      all-rounder and showed his technical and power hitting ability with 100 off 73 balls. He was also the
 7                   leader of our pace bowling attack and his opening spell against the Barbados Under 17 team was
         Fisher
                     outstanding to watch. In the field, Lachie also excelled and is a player to watch.
                     It was excellent to watch Jordan’s all-round ability on this tour. Returning from injury, his pace
        Jordan       bowling shows significant potential and twice on tour he picked up 3 wickets in an innings. With the
 8                   bat, Jordan grew in confidence as the tour progressed and in his last innings he played positively
        Fullagar
                     and showed he has an excellent array of strokes.
                     Aidan is an outstanding young man who was a pleasure to have on tour. Always willing to help out
        Aidan        his fellow tourists on and off the field, his attitude was exceptional. He was the equal third-highest
 9                   wicket-taker on tour (7) and he is also a batsman with excellent potential. He is a fluent speaker of
       Jackson
                     Alabii and taught many of the boys the language on tour as well.
                     Oscar is a technically correct top-order batsman and although he did not get many runs, he showed
         Oscar       he has the potential to perform at this level. With the ball, he bowled some excellent spells
10                   highlighted by his 3 overs in the last game where he bowled superbly and managed to knock over
          Kirk
                     the middle stump of his older brother Henry, who was playing for the opposition team.
                     As a top-order batter, Corey developed significantly on tour and his two 50s that came at quicker
                     than a run a ball showed that he has the ability to score quickly when required. Corey also has
11       Corey       significant potential as a pace bowler and when needed on tour also wicket-kept well. He took some
         Miller      outstanding catches on tour both on the field and at the beach. A quiet player off the field, Corey
                     often snuck under the radar of the fines master.
                     Varun was a pleasure to have on tour and on a number of occasions, he showed his ability as a
         Varun       pace bowler with some excellent spells. He bowls at good pace and can swing the ball and was
12     Ravindran     unlucky not to get more wickets. His batting also showed potential and hopefully he goes on to have
                     a successful all-round season this year.
                     Left-handed batsman Charlie had an excellent tour, scoring three half-centuries. His last innings of
        Charlie      62 from 42 balls rescued the team after we lost our first 8 wickets for just over 100. His ability to
13                   adapt to different conditions shows how Charlie is a top order batter with a big future. He also
         Rose
                     bowled well when given the opportunity and his out-field catching was superb.
                     Lachlan was the pick of our spinners on tour. He constantly was impressive in terms of the control
        Lachlan      and variation with his leg-spin. His 5 wicket haul against the strongest Under 17 School in the
14                   country (Combermere) showed his temperament under pressure. He also is an accomplished
       Roughley
                     top-order batsman who will hopefully have a big season this year.

                                                                                                                             33
