ADG and NT Cricket continue sponsorship
ADG and NT Cricket continue to provide great cricket opportunities in the north
Northern Territory Cricket and Airport Development Group (ADG) have renewed their partnership incorporating NT Cricket’s Cricket 365 program.
Following the success of the pilot program in 2021, the key focus of the partnership continues to be the ADG Indigenous Cricket Program, to be held across the Darwin, Palmerston and Katherine regions, with school clinics and gala days involving young Indigenous boys and girls. The program is delivered in partnership with interstate cricketers playing in the Cricket 365 program.
ADG CEO Tony Edmondstone says - “Our sponsorship of NT Cricket’s Cricket 365 Program and the ADG Indigenous Cricket Program aim to develop local talent by providing access elite coaching.”
“With cricket played and followed by millions of fans around the world, we believe is the perfect vehicle to help drive visitation to the Territory.”
