Vet World Cup Cricket 2011
3RD VETERINARY WORLD CUP CRICKET
Palmerston North - New Zealand
7th - 11th February 2011
Do you dream to be like Jesse Ryder, plucked from obscurity and into the world cricketing limelight?
Then the 2011 Veterinary World Cup Cricket is your chance to make your name.
Previous events have been held in South Africa since 2003, with such teams like India and more recently New Zealand having attended.
The 2007 event was a huge social occasion with a bit of patriotic fervour forging lifelong friendships and cricketing memories never to be forgotten.
It is New Zealand's turn to host this event. We invite you to get a team together from your country or province for 2011 and join in on the massive social event to happen in Palmerston North.
The inaugural Veterinary World Cup Cricket Tournament was held in the Republic of South Africa in 2003 attracting nine local teams as well as a team from India. The second tournament was also held in RSA during 2007 and was supported by a team from New Zealand. The challenge is now for New Zealand to host a 3rd successful tournament and to attract teams from all cricket playing countries to make it truly an international event.The event is held every four years to coincide with the year of the ‘real' World Cup Cricket Competition. It is designed to foster camaraderie within the profession and whilst ability is recognised and rewarded, the emphasis is on good fellowship and social interaction. The intention is to begin the week with a Veterinary Conference at the Massey University Institute of Veterinary Animal and Biomedical Sciences and will include a rest day allowing time for sightseeing touring other activities.
