How do you get scouted in cricket?

Answer 1

To be scouted is simple. You need to play for a club. Quality players are selected (based on personal results) to play for a representative team, normally a combination of players from their teams association. If selected, they will then play against other associations. For where I live, its called Country Week. That's where country teams play each other in Melbourne for a week in a round robin tournament. Quality players get picked up by a District Club, where they play in their capital city. They are selected to play for their state, based on District results and then their country if they are good enough. State players, when not playing state cricket, will continue to play for their District Club, and sometimes, but rarely, an International Player will play for their local club if other games are not being played. Often, state cricketers will play County cricket in England during the off season, and they may be selected for National duties based on those results too.

Answer 2

It depends what age you are mostly. If you are around 12-18 then if you play for a club they will then put you forward for county trials normally, this is when you would the start on the England Netball ladder. Within you club if you play inter-club tournaments there will often be scouts there and they may pick you. But to be scouted you should play for a club, this will make your chances a lot better. But if you play a tournament for your school team there may be scouts there. If you are younger, then just wait a couple of years and join a club. In you are older then it is a lot harder to be scouted because by this age all county teams have been chosen and they are training a lot, but still play for a club, because if you have talent then you have a chance of being scouted, just play a lot of netball and tournaments and you will have a good chance, hope this helps
