American College Cricket National Tournament (Spring 2015)

Object Code Requested Recommended Final Description
Ops-Registration and Tournaments (+) $900.00 $900.00 $900.00

This is a change from FY 14. This tournament held in Florida was scrapped from our budget in favor of a local Pittsburgh tournament.The Spring National tournament offers an opportunity for CMU cricket club to participate in a tournament with 30 other colleges. The seeding is based on performance in the regional tournament and CMU has never failed to qualify in the last 5 years. As runners up in 2013, we are a seeded team in 2014 but since it was scrapped from our budget, we have asked the players to pay in 2014. For 2015, support for this tournament will be greatly appreciated instead of the Pittsburgh tournament. Though local, the Pittsburgh tournament does not offer a challenge to players as the other teams participating are not all college based competitive teams. Moreover, the local Pittsburgh league is held during April-August and most of the players are unavialable due to break or summer internships.

Travel-Airfare Domestic (+) $5,250.00 $5,250.00 $5,250.00

Typically held during spring break, the current airfare as of 01/29/2014 is $350 (roundtrip) per person. With a squad of 15 players, this is the major chunk of our costs. Even partial support will be appreciated.

Equip-Clothing (+) $250.00 $250.00 $250.00

$25/person. Uniforms are required only for new players. In FY 2015 we expect 10 new players in the squad.

Travel-Rental Car (+) $1,000.00 $1,000.00 $1,000.00

From past experiences- the cost of rental plus gas for 3 cars to transport 15 members to and from the grounds for 5 days of the tournament has averaged around $1000.

Travel-Hotel and Lodging (+) $2,000.00 $2,000.00 $2,000.00

15 members in 4 rooms for 4 nights at 125/night inclusive of extra beds (based on past experience).

Food-Refreshments for Events (+) $200.00 $200.00 $200.00

Refreshments during games: Gatorade and Water for 5+ games over 5 days and for 15 people.

Travel-Professional Vehicle Services (+) $300.00 $300.00 $300.00

CMU to PIT airport and PIT back to CMU along with sports equipment and luggage. Super shuttle will be booked for this.

Sub-Total $9,900.00 $9,900.00 $9,900.00

Equipment

Object Code Requested Recommended Final Description
Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) $620.00 $620.00 $620.00

2 cricket bats at $310 a piece with shipping. Cricket bats range from $199-$699. In our past 5 years, we have tried several different bats and identified this particular bat (http://www.cricketstoreonline.com/cricket-bats/ss-ton-professional-cricket-bat-2013-sh-2-9/) to be very durable and last us an entire year. Two bats will be shared by 15+ players, so durability is important. Our current bats have worn out and we will need atleast 2 new bats for the team for the next year.

Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) $420.00 $150.00 $150.00

42 cricket balls at $10 a piece (http://www.cricketstoreonline.com/cricket-balls/ca-test-star-white-ball/). We have to use white balls and from our previous experiences this is the cheapest decent quality ball available and that we can use. Cricket balls easily wear out and new balls are required in every practice session and in every match that we play. We have 8 balls left from last year and will run out of balls starting August 2014. We have a scheduled practice session every week and use 1 new ball each session. During the year we will have 32 practice sessions and remaining 10 balls will be for tournament games.

Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) $50.00 $50.00 $50.00

A further $50 will be spent on repair of damaged equipment that can be used during practice sessions. One of our players has won an equipment sponsorship deal with Hammer Cricket USA for outstanding achievement in the regional tournament and will receive protective gear such as 1 set of batting legguards, batting-gloves, helmet, thigh guard, chest guard, arm guard and shoes. New equipment will be used by other team members during the tournament games.

Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) $150.00 $150.00 $150.00

3 kit bags to carry equipment to the tournaments at $50 each (http://www.cricketstoreonline.com/bags-and-holdalls/ca-gold-cricket-bag-with-wheels/). Our current bags were purchased 2 years ago and are torn after 4 tournament trips.
