ICC Men’s U19 World Cup Europe Qualifier – Cricket Scotland

August 2025 | Various locations across Scotland

In August 2025, Cricket Scotland are proudly hosting the ICC Men’s U19 World Cup Europe Qualifier, with matches taking place at venues across the country. This is an exciting opportunity to showcase Scotland as a world-class cricketing nation — and we need your help to make it happen.

We require one Match Manager for each of the following venues:

  • Arbroath United Cricket Club
  • Forfarshire Cricket Club
  • Strathmore Cricket Club

Role Summary
The Match Manager plays a pivotal role in delivering a smooth and professional tournament experience.  Working closely with the ICC Match Referee and ICC Tournament Director, the Match Manager acts as a key liaison to support match operations, excluding the investigation or adjudication of alleged breaches of the Code of Conduct, which is managed by the ICC Match Referee.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Compilation of a comprehensive list of match contact details.
  •  Liaise closely with the ICC Match Referee, Venue Manager, and Event Officer before, during, and after each match.
  • Facilitate a pre-series meeting with officials and team representatives.
  • Support the logistical and operational needs of match officials, including transport, catering, and equipment.
  • Assist with any on-site duties that will assist in the successful staging of the match (which could include such activity as assisting with the removal of the covers, for example). 
  • Ensure timely match paperwork, clock synchronisation, DLS implementation, and scoreboard accuracy.
  • Maintain match official areas, uphold ICC standards, and assist with any Code of Conduct or suspected illegal action reports.
  • Assist in managing field operations such as drinks breaks, pitch preparation, and protective cover removal if needed.
  • Provide post-match support including equipment storage and paperwork submission.

What We’re Looking For
We welcome applications from individuals across the cricket community who are:
  • Organised and dependable
  • Strong communicators
  • Calm under pressure
  • Passionate about delivering high-quality experiences
  • Flexible team players with a proactive attitude

This role would suit individuals with a strong understanding of cricket administration and officiating, offering a unique opportunity to support international-level youth cricket.

  • An up-to-date CV
  • A covering letter outlining:
    • Why you’re interested

Please note: As some roles involve working closely with under-18 players, there may be a requirement for PVG checks. Cricket Scotland will advise successful candidates where this is necessary and will support the process as appropriate.

Pay: £120 per day (includes rolled-up holiday pay)
Hours: To be confirmed

Applicants must have the right to work in the UK during August and be available for on-site delivery at one or more of these locations.
