This is my first post on here so go easy
Early next year I'll be moving to Australia (Sydney) on a working holiday visa initially and then hopefully I'll be gaining permanent residency. I want to know more about club cricket down under as currently i have little knowledge on the standards and what i can expect. I've been playing since i was 8 and spent a few early teenage years playing at minor county level before injuries meant i had to take a long time out of the game. I'm now 22 and when i move over i obviously want to join a club as soon as possible, both for the cricket, and the social aspect (because ill be a loner with no friends). From what i hear about grade cricket it is a very high standard, up there with county level in England. What are the chances of getting into one of the lower grades at these clubs at the standard i am currently at? I love the professional mindset from from grade teams with the training kits, training multiple times a week and the preseason schedule. So i would rather go for that instead of teams who are geared more towards leisure players.
Thanks and any help would be great!
