Hamilton Cricket Classic – Labour Weekend 2025

What a fantastic weekend of schoolboy cricket! The Hamilton Cricket Classic proved to be the perfect preseason hit-out for all teams involved.

Although the weather was a little changeable at times, the players made the most of every opportunity — brushing off the cobwebs and getting valuable time in the middle as they prepare for another exciting season ahead.

A huge thank you to St Paul’s Collegiate for hosting the event and providing such outstanding facilities and catering.

Big thanks also to Aaron Coombes and Richard Clarke for coordinating the umpiring team, to all the parents who braved the elements from the sidelines, and of course to the teams who made the weekend what it was:

🏏 St Paul’s Collegiate

🏏 Hamilton Boys’ High School

🏏 Tauranga Boys’ College

🏏 St John’s College

🏏 Wellington Lions

🏏 Clutch Coaching

🏏 Suburbs New Lynn

🏏 Seddon Cricket Club

Thank you all for playing your part in creating a brilliant spirit of camaraderie and competition.

A massive shout out to the team from Wellington that made the trip north. Matt Tilley, your enthusiasm was amazing!
