Women and Girls Teams Information
Takapuna is the
‘Home of Women & Girls Cricket’ in North Harbour with teams in every age grade of the
Auckland Cricket Association Women & Girls Grades Competitions. We can cater
for Women and Girls across all age grades and abilities, from beginners through
to playing for the New Zealand White Ferns.
Takapuna Women & Girls teams regularly feature in end of season
finals (winning more often than not) and many individual players succeed to
higher playing honours from the coaching we provide.
All playing equipment is provided – helmet, pads, bats, balls, gloves

shirt and cap on loan.
