• The first preference is always given to the players that have been part of the Hutt Hawks or our past India tours. Where possible we welcome new players as long as you are an enthusiastic cricketer and have represented cricket at decent level.
• Attitude, please personality and a likeable character is very much a requirement. Without these qualities the tour may not really be as enjoyable for both Hutt Hawks and the participant.
• Hutt Hawks is a very tight knit unit and we welcome players from all around New Zealand but the criteria for selection will heavily depend on the references you can get from your past coaches.

To be eligible for our Under-13/14s tour to India, players must meet specific criteria to ensure a safe and enriching experience. It is mandatory for each player to be accompanied by a parent or guardian throughout the tour, providing essential support and supervision. Additionally, candidates must have at least 2 to 3 years of experience playing hard ball cricket, demonstrating a commitment to the sport and the necessary skills for competitive play. Eligible players should be over the age of 11 but under the age of 13 at the time of the tour, allowing us to maintain a focused and age-appropriate environment for all participants. This blend of requirements ensures that our young cricketers are well-prepared, both skillfully and supportively, for the unique challenges and opportunities of touring India.
