The Crowe Academy, established in 2016, is our flagship initiative.  Athletes in this programme are regularly moving into the wider Premier senior squads and often exceling, becoming key members of their respective teams.   We have also seen athletes represent New Zealand at the Under 19 level and Auckland through various age group teams. 

The Crowe Academy provides athletes with specialist coaching and advisors during their time in the school cricket system (year 9 to year 13) in the following areas; batting, bowling, throwing and fielding, strength and fitness and team fundamentals.  

From 2020/21, additional high-quality coaching resource will also be provided to selected men aged 18-22 and women aged 16-22 within the Premier Men's and Women's structures at Cornwall Cricket Club. This change will ensure our most talented youth cricketers will receive specialist coaching and advice as they find their feet in senior cricket.  

The Crowe Scholarship, now discontinued, was awarded annually to outstanding students planning to undertake undergraduate study at the University of Auckland and play cricket for Cornwall.

Recipients were awarded $5,000 per annum towards their university studies for a period of three years, fully funded by the Cornwall Cricket Development Foundation.
