About Riverbend Cricket

The Riverbend Tournament in Hawke's Bay presents a fantastic opportunity for young cricketers to be part of something special through its Riverbend Membership.

Priced at just $350, this membership offers access to the well-known Hawke's Bay Cricket Camps, referred to as Riverbend. These camps have a storied history and are a staple in the local community, providing an excellent platform for youngsters to hone their cricket skills.

The Riverbend Membership isn't just about learning to play cricket; it's about becoming part of a community.

The Riverbend Cricket Camps are well-organised, featuring experienced coaches who provide top-notch instruction in both the basics and the finer points of the game. Whether your child is a complete beginner or has some experience, the camps are structured to cater to all levels of skill and experience.

Wine Fundraiser Form

Seddon Cricket Club is aware of the ever increasing of fees. Most of it is out of our control but we are committed to living by our values by making cricket accessible for all. As such we are proud to to give our families the opportunity to sell bespoke and novelty wine as a fundraiser to limited the costs. This year we will give each family the opportunity to sell 5 cases of wine. 

Please balance your order out between Night Watchman Pinot Noir and French Cut Rose. We have ordered both flavours as a 50/50 split between the two. This is based on what was sold last year. Parents can only purchase full cases of Seddon Cricket Club. 

Seddon Cricket Club are offering parents the potential to purchase up to 5 cases of bespoke novelty wine for $192 each case. Parents have the opportunity to sell a full case for $350, half a case $180 or individual bottles $30. 


To make things simple the equation is this:

Buy 5 cases of wine off Seddon = $960 - Sell 5 cases of wine for $1,750. Profit = $790

Buy 4 cases of wine off Seddon = $768 - Sell 4 cases of wine for $1,400. Profit = $632

Buy 3 cases of wine off Seddon = $576 - Sell 3 cases of wine for $1,050.Profit = $474

Buy 2 cases of wine off Seddon = $384 - Sell 2 cases of wine for $700. Profit = $316

Buy 1 case of wine off Seddon = $192 - Sell 1 case of wine for $350. Profit = $158
