Mid Canterbury Cricket Association warmly invites you to join us for the official launch of the 2026/27 cricket season and the opening of our upgraded Pavilion on Saturday, 26 September from 11:00am to 1:00pm at the Ashburton Oval Pavilion off Park Lane.

This is an opportunity for us to come together as a cricket community, celebrate the progress that has been made, and look ahead to an exciting new season. We will have Black Caps and White Ferns also in attendance so a great chance for the players to meet some of their heroes, or to get a “selfie”.

There will be plenty happening throughout the morning, including fun games and activities for children including the inflatable dive mat, obstacle course and bowling alley, making it a great event for the whole family. People will be able to have a wander through the pavilion to see all the changes they have supported too.

For our clubs, sponsors, supporters and fundraising partners, the event is also a chance to see the progress and improvements made to the Pavilion facilities, and to acknowledge the contribution of everyone who has helped make these developments possible.

We would love you to join us as we officially kick off the 2026/27 season on a high, celebrate what has been achieved together, and look forward to the future of cricket in Mid Canterbury.
