About the Austrian Cricket Association
The Austrian Cricket Association is the National Governing Body of Cricket in Austria. It was founded in 1981 by Kerry Tattersall, as the Austrian Cricketers Association, following the re-introduction of cricket to Austria in 1975. Cricket was recorded as being played in Vienna as far back as the 1890s, traditionally by gardeners of mercantile families. During the post-war occupation of Austria, cricket was also played by allied forces members. Since 1992, the Austrian Cricket Association has been an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council, and it is one of the founding members of the European Cricket Council.
Executive Committee
Its Executive Committee is elected every two years and consists of five elected members. In March 2007, Michael Bailey was re-elected to serve a second term as Chairman, having previously served as Secretary, succeeding Andrew Simpson-Parker. Sivabala Nadarajah holds the position of Cricket Development Officer and Arvinder Ghai is the Association Treasurer. Graham Tebb subsequently took over Walter Blaschke's place on the executive committee following his election as Chairman of the Austrian Union of Cricket Umpires and Scorers (AUCUS). All officers are volunteer workers.
Member Clubs
The association's members are cricket clubs, with 13 member clubs as at 25 July 2007, each holding a single vote, with clubs having to be registered with the Austrian Vereinspolizei. Currently there are clubs from four of Austria's 9 federal provinces: Whilst the majority of clubs are based in Vienna, there are also clubs in Salzburg, Graz and Velden.

Competitions organised
The Austrian Cricket Association is responsible amongst other duties for the administration of organised cricket competitions in Austria, with the ACA Open League perceived to be its premier competition.
ACA Open League
The ACA Open League is a 50 overs single innings league, and in 2006 was split into two parallel conferences (Austrian Conference and National Conference) to allow more teams to enter the league. The top three teams of each conference qualified for the Super Sixes stage, with the top two contesting a final to decide the Open League Champions. Teams not qualifying for the Super Sixes stage played in localised plate competitions - the Viennese Plate and the Southern Plate.
Vienna Lions CC won the Open League in 2006, defeating Five Continents CC in the final played in September 2006 in Seebarn. United Nations CC won the Viennese Plate competition, with CC Velden '91 winning the Southern Plate competition.
ACA Trophy
Vienna Lions CC won the 2006 ACA Trophy (North). The competition has been regionalised since 2002, with Salzburg CC having dominated the ACA Trophy (South).
Austrian National Team
The Austrian national team is open to players who are qualified to play for Austria under the International Cricket Council's qualification criteria and fulfil a nationality and development criteria. The Austrian national team made its competitive début in 1990 in Guernsey and played regularly until 2003. In 2006 the national team was revived, playing two international matches against the Czech Republic.
