The outcome of the report is to identify and prioritise the current and future issues and opportunities facing Cricket Wellington and provide related actions to support the development of the game. Methodology As part of preparing the report the following work has been undertaken: • Survey with clubs, • Interviews with New Zealand Cricket, • Interviews with Cricket Wellington, • Interviews with councils within the Cricket Wellington boundaries, • Membership analysis, • Update report for client review, • Population growth analysis, • Cricket wicket supply and demand analysis, • Development of issues, opportunities and potential priorities, • Development of proposed actions. CRICKET WELLINGTON | FACILITIES STRATEGY 2.0 | SUMMARY FINDINGS Summary of Key Findings • Cricket in the Wellington region is a significant summer sport with almost 15,000 people playing the game from male, female and junior players through to seniors. • There is a total of approximately 464 cricket teams in the Wellington region, of which 306 are junior teams. • Wellington City Council area has the majority of the teams with 321, followed by the Lower Hutt City Council area with 128 teams. • There has been an increase of 50 teams over the past six-year period (36 of which were from within the Wellington City Council area). • The network of cricket facilities is vast, ranging from the iconic Basin Reserve and Westpac Stadium through to community club and school wickets. • It is generally accepted that there are sufficient grounds to cater for the current demand for cricket. The projected outdoor wicket capacity section within the report identifies that there will be sufficient grounds and wickets to meet the current and project player demands. • The variable quality in the cricket grounds (wicket blocks, artificial wickets and outfields) provided across the region has been identified as a key issue by the clubs and Wellington Cricket. • However, cricket like most sports, is heavily reliant on the provision of facilities by a number of third parties (multiple Councils and schools). This creates a challenge in attempting to provide consistency in the quality of provision. • There is an inconsistent approach to levels of service for cricket in the Wellington region. There are different forms of user charges for sportsfields and various levels of wicket and outfield quality, as examples. • Improvements at key cricket sites throughout the region will be required in the future to provide an appropriate level of service. • Access to quality school wickets is becoming increasingly important to the cricket facilities network. There has been a growth of approximately 50 junior cricket teams in the last six seasons. • Increasing the quality of the existing artificial wickets will allow the growth of junior cricket to be undertaken on an appropriate standard of wicket for game and skill development. There are 118 primary schools with only 11 artificial wickets on school grounds. • The needs of Test, One Day and 20/20 requirements are met within the current facility network. The two key facilities within the Wellington region are the Basin Reserve (which is currently being upgraded as part of the masterplan redevelopment for the site) and Westpac Stadium. • There are sufficient indoor training facilities to cater for the club and representative requirements. • A potential back up first-class venue should be considered as part of the future planning. Potential options could be the upgrading of Korari Park (outfield issues), or Trentham Memorial Park (if the proposed combined Wellington high performance training venue is developed at the old CIT campus). • Cricket Wellington has identified a lack of quality outdoor grass training blocks in the Wellington region, often leading to representative squads having limited access to the required training areas. The upgrading of an existing asset (such as Korari) to the required specification and providing access at a cost-effective level is a possible solution. PAGE 7 3.0 | MEMBERSHIP AND PARTICIPATION The following section provides an overview of the membership and participation trends for cricket in the Wellington region over the past six years. Key Points • There is a total of approximately 464 cricket teams in the Wellington region, of which 306 are junior teams. • The Wellington City Council area has the majority of the teams with 321, followed by the Lower Hutt City Council area with 128 teams. • There has been an increase of 50 teams over the past six-year period (36 of which were from within the Wellington City Council area). • Junior club grades are where the team growth has occurred (50 teams) • Junior school cricket player numbers have increased over the past six years (474 to 726). • Progression through the youth grades appears to be a barrier to maintaining player numbers at senior level. • Female participation rates have decreased over the past five years (mainly as a result of New Zealand Cricket based programmes). Cricket Wellington Club Team Numbers Table 3.1 below summarises recent club team number trends in the four Council areas within the Cricket Wellington Region. Results are ordered according to the number of teams gained. As identified Wellington City has had the greatest increase in teams (36 new teams since 2012). While Wellington and to a lesser degree also Lower Hutt predominate, Upper Hutt City has had the highest proportional growth overall.

This was the assumption used here to calculate team numbers based on North City membership records. CRICKET WELLINGTON | FACILITIES STRATEGY 3.0 Note: Porirua Porirua City is also included above despite not hosting any club, even though its population falls within the larger catchment area of the North City Cricket Club (in Wellington City’s north). To allow for this situation, Table 3.2 presents estimated team numbers associated with Porirua City1, and the correspondingly corrected number of Wellington City teams. This shows the variation and overall slight decline in team numbers associated with Porirua over recent years.

  • Basin Reserve Trust Statement of Service Performance 2019/20
    Basin Reserve Trust Statement of Service Performance 2019/20 2 Introduction The iconic Basin Reserve has a rich history. The first game of cricket was played at the Basin on 11 January 1868, making it is the oldest cricket ground in New Zealand. The ground not only hosts cricket games, but sporting fixtures of every variety. It has hosted national events and competitions including VE Day celebrations, Royal Tours, exhibitions, Scout jamborees, concerts and festivals. In 1998, the Basin Reserve was listed as a Heritage Area, becoming the first sports ground to receive such a designation and further enhancing its heritage significance. The Basin is also home to the William Wakefield Memorial that was erected in 1882 and commemorates one of Wellington’s founders, William Wakefield. The Basin Reserve plays a role in assisting Wellington City Council to achieve the recreation and leisure participation aims signalled in the 2018-28 Ten Year Plan and the “Living WELL” Wellington Sport & Active Recreation Strategy. The redevelopment will reposition the Basin as New Zealand’s premier cricket venue and help attract national and international events to Wellington. The day to day management of the Basin Reserve is undertaken by Cricket Wellington under a management agreement with the Basin Reserve Trust (BRT). This Statement of Service Performance highlights the achievements of the Trust for the period July 2019 to June 2020. Objectives The objectives of the trust are stated in the Trust Deed as agreed between the Wellington City Council and the BRT and are highlighted below: 1. to manage, administer, plan, develop, maintain, promote and operate the Basin Reserve for recreation and leisure activities and for the playing of cricket for the benefit of the inhabitants of Wellington 2.

  • Modeling Site Effects in the Lower Hutt Valley, New Zealand
    2694 MODELING SITE EFFECTS IN THE LOWER HUTT VALLEY, NEW ZEALAND Brian M ADAMS1, John B BERRILL2, Rob O DAVIS3 And John J TABER4 SUMMARY Lower Hutt City lies atop a wedge of Quaternary sediments forming a long alluvial valley. On its western edge the sediments butt up against the near vertical wall of the potentially active Wellington Fault, capable of an earthquake of moment magnitude 7.6. A two-dimensional linear finite-element method has been used to model the propagation of antiplane SH waves within the soft sediments and surrounding bedrock. The technique has proved to be an efficient and accurate means of modeling fine geological detail. Two detailed geological cross-sections through the Lower Hutt were modeled to gain an overall impression of the valley's seismic behaviour. It was found that horizontally propagating surface waves, generated at the valley edges, are the cause of significant amplification. The aptly named basin-edge effect – speculated to be the cause of a belt of severe shaking during the 1995 Kobe earthquake – is observed in the simulation results, occuring some 70-200 metres out from the fault. Fourier spectral ratios across the valley indicate a behaviour dominated by two-dimensional resonance, and compare favourably in magnitude with previously collected weak motion data. Certain resonant frequencies within the range 0.3-2.5 hertz are amplified up to 14 times that for nearby outcropping bedrock. Results are likely to be conservative due to the linear modeling, yet exclude fault-rupture effects due to the teleseismic nature of the input scheme. INTRODUCTION In this paper we describe our use of a two-dimensional finite-element numerical scheme to simulate ground motions from earthquake shaking in the soft sediments in-filling the Lower Hutt Valley.

    Summary Report LET’S GET WELLINGTON MOVING This report presents summary findings of the Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) November and December 2017 public engagement. February 2018 Report prepared by Global Research Ltd Report By Global Research Ltd Foreword by Let’s Get Wellington Moving Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) is a joint initiative between Wellington City Council, Greater Wellington Regional Council, and the New Zealand Transport Agency. We’re working with the people of Wellington to develop a transport system that improves how the city looks, feels, and functions. Our focus is the area from Ngauranga to the airport, including the Wellington Urban Motorway and connections to the central city, port, hospital, and the eastern and southern suburbs. OUR WORK SO FAR In 2016 we talked with people around the region to learn what people like and dislike about Wellington and how they get around the city. Using feedback from more than 10,000 people, we developed a set of urban design and transport priniciples to guide our work. We then collected extensive transport data, and used the principles and ideas from the public to develop scenarios to improve Wellington’s transport and support the city’s growth. THIS REPORT In November and December 2017, we released four scenarios for Wellington’s transport future and promoted these in a region-wide public engagement programme. The scenarios were presented in the document Have Your Say…on Let’s Get Wellington Moving and on the website yourvoice.getwellymoving.co.nz. As a result, LGWM received 1,994 online and hardcopy-form responses, 147 letter/report style responses (including 55 from stakeholder groups), and 35 Facebook posts.

  • Basin Reserve Heritage Backgrounder
    SAVE THE BASIN RESERVE NO FLYOVER www.savethebasin.org.nz [email protected] Basin Reserve Heritage Introduction The Basin Reserve is one of Wellington’s most significant reserves and recreation areas. It is registered as an ‘Historic Area’ by the NZ Historic Places Trust – the first sports ground in New Zealand to receive this. All parts, including the Museum Stand (Pavilion), R.A. Vance Stand, Groundman's Shed, playing oval and picket fence, Reid and Dempster Gates, former Midland St Pats Cricket Clubrooms, the main fence, William Wakefield Fountain, toilets, scoreboard, play area, three light towers and the bank, are included in the registration. In addition, the Pavilion has a Category 2 registration. Earliest days The area occupied by the Basin Reserve was once a lagoon connected to the harbour by a stream, bordered by swamp. It was called the Basin by William Mein Smith, the Surveyor General in 1840, because he envisaged that, as the settlement grew, the stream could be widened and barges could be drawn up to a Basin created there. From surrounding warehouses, goods would be efficiently distributed to the city and Newtown. Mein Smith’s plans for a canal and dock were put paid to by a very large earthquake in 1855. At 8.2 on the richter scale, it raised Te Aro Flat 5 feet so the lagoon became a mere swamp. Gift to the people of Wellington The citizens of Wellington own the Basin Reserve. The land was first granted by the Crown in 1861 “in trust for the purposes of public utility to the Town of Wellington and its inhabitants”.
