The Singapore Cricket Association (SCA) organized the U-15 Boys Junior Intermediate Development (JID) Championship T20 tournament team officials and captains’ briefing on October 10, 2024, at the SportSG auditorium.

The tournament will take place from October 14 to November 4, 2024, at SCA’s new venue, SNCG. Ten participating teams from schools, academies, and clubs attended the briefing.
Mohamed Shoib, the National Development Officer and Tournament Director from SCA, led the briefing. The tournament aims to provide emerging cricketers in the U-15 category with the opportunity to gain match experience in a formal tournament setting. This championship is part of the broader Youth Development Program under the SCA, which is structured around three phases: “Emerging Talent,” “Elite Player Performance,” and “High Performance.” The U-15 tournament is specifically designed to give young cricketers exposure to competitive cricket.
Mr. Senthil Kumar, a senior match official and member of the umpire committee, spoke about the crucial role of match officials in ensuring the success of the tournament. He emphasized the importance of fair play and maintaining high standards of officiating to foster a positive competitive spirit among the young players. He also briefed the captains and team officials on anti-corruption protocols.

The tournament is part of SCA’s larger youth development program, which aims to foster cricket skills among young athletes and promote the game across Singapore. It provides a competitive platform for emerging talent and serves as a feeder for national squads. All the best!

Our National Cricket Team will soon have a new home, thanks to the hard work of the SCA Executive Committee and our partners! We thank MCCY and SportSG for the invaluable support to secure the West Coast Ground.  SCA hopes to have a cricket-ready facility to start National Training by mid 2024.

In land-scarce Singapore, this is a massive undertaking that gives reason for celebration. The National Team will have a good training and competition environment supporting its endeavour to make Singapore proud.

“It is a challenge to find adequate space for field sports, given the land constraint we face in Singapore. The national cricket team’s training regimen and schedule requires a dedicated space that is conducive for training. We appreciate the strong support from Ministry of Culture, Community & Youth and Sport Singapore in this journey – from negotiating for earlier shared facility arrangement at Balestier Plain to their quick action in helping us secure the lease at West Coast Ground,” said Mahmood Gaznavi, President of SCA. “From the moment Singapore Cricket Association shared our requirements and challenges with Minister Edwin Tong, there had been prompt and timely developments culminating in the West Coast Ground being allocated to cricket.”

The National Cricket League will continue at various locations including the Padang, Dempsey and the Balestier Plain at Indian Association and Ceylon Sports Club grounds.

SCA is confident and continues to work closely with our partners in our push to promote cricket and to secure a permanent home for the National Team and cricket’s national development.
