Representative matches are played in U12's, U14's U15's and U16's age divisions.
The season opens with U12's, U14's and U16's contesting the Surf n Turf Shield against Coffs Harbour teams. This is a keenly contested shield and we look forward to the Coffs team coming to Armidale this season so that we may win back the shield from their grasp.
Next on the agenda is the Central North Invitational Carnival held over the October long weekend in Tamworth. During this round-robin event Northern Tablelands U13's, U14's and U16's compete against North West, Mid North Coast and Hunter Valley teams.
During the season all age groups compete in the Inter-District Competition against teams from Inverell, Glen Innes and Warialda.
The ADJCA conduct our own carnival in January every year for the Under 15's. This is known as the Walter Taylor Shield and attracts excellent competition. All matches are played on turf (weather permitting), is fully umpired (with official NSW Umpires) and catered for by ADJCA volunteers with assistance from the senior Cricket Association.
