    Cricket Curator Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea (PNG) This assignment has been negotiated in good faith with the Partner Organisation, and the information contained was correct at the time of acceptance of the request. However, while we take responsibility for matters under our direct control, all assignments and arrangements are subject to change. This assignment may be amended or withdrawn to reflect changes in circumstances. GENERAL DETAILS Assignment Title Cricket Curator Partner Organisation Cricket PNG Website of Partner Organisation www.cricketpng.com Duration of Assignment 3x 4 months Start Date 21 June 2020 (earlier would be better)15 March, 2020 Formatted: Highlight 1. PARTNER ORGANISATION OVERVIEW Cricket was introduced in Papua New Guinea (PNG) by missionaries from the London Missionaries Society in the early 1900s. Initially matches were not always played with strict rules, with teams fielding over fifty players a common occurrence. The game became very popular among the Papuan coastal villages where these missionaries and early British explorers first landed. There is still conjecture where the first game of cricket was played, with Milne Bay, Oro and Hanuabada the three (3) most likely areas where the first cricket match was played on the shores of PNG. PNG became an Associate Member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 1973, before competing in ICC Trophy in 1979. Since that initial tournament, PNG has competed in a total of 33 ICC Sanctioned/Pacific Games competitions across a number of formats. Cricket PNG is the National Cricket Federation responsible for the development, promotion and governance of cricket in Papua New Guinea and is supported by the ICC East Asia-Pacific (EAP) regional office.
