Novi Cricket Tournament

The City of Novi Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department will hold its first adult cricket tournament at Ella Mae Power Park. Tournament action will be held 6-11 p.m. Aug. 6-7, 14, and 20, with the championship game played Aug. 21.

This type of cricket will be played with a softer ball and shorter play time. All teams will be guaranteed at least three pool play matches, and the top eight will progress to a single elimination tournament.

Awards and trophies will be handed out, including for winning team, runners-up, and individual trophies will go to best batsman, best bowler and the tourney VIP.
