On January 20, 2023, SACA proudly launched our first ever Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP).
This document not only highlights the strong history and involvement Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have played in South Australian cricket, but also gives us the opportunity to listen, learn and grow our engagement as we continue to make cricket a sport for all.

The RAP includes 85 action items that SACA will aim to achieve within a two-year period, with a clear focus on:
- improving, maintaining and developing mutually beneficial relationships
- showing respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and culture
- providing opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to participate, volunteer, supply and work in South Australian cricket.
This document wouldn’t have been possible without the help of the cricket community, SACA staff and board and most importantly, our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander advisors, stakeholders and cricketers, as their guidance and support will allow us to continue to play our role in Reconciliation.
A big thank you must go to our RAP working group member and artist, Steven Warrior, for their contribution to this work and document.
