Calling Wellington cricket fans
Two lucky Wellington cricket fans could win the chance to head out on to the pitch with the BLACKCAPS this month as the Kiwis take on Sri Lanka and Pakistan at two ANZ One Day Internationals at Westpac Stadium.
New Zealand Post, through its community programme ActivePost, is giving Wellington children the chance to deliver the match ball to the umpire before each of the ANZ ODIs on Thursday 29 January and Saturday 31 January 2015.
“As cricket fever builds ahead of the Cricket World Cup, the chance to be involved in an ODI on their home turf is a prize children will love,” says New Zealand Post Sponsorship spokesperson Malcolm Shaw.
“It’s summer time and we want children to come along to the cricket, enjoy the games, and be inspired to participate in their own clubs and schools.
“The opportunity to be a part of a BLACKCAPS game will hopefully inspire young fans to stay involved with cricket and keep active in their communities,” Malcolm Shaw says.
To enter the competition to deliver the match ball go to www.activepost.co.nz.
