Mid‑Season One‑Day Final – Player Qualification Summary
The mid-season one-day finals will be played on Sunday 13 December. To be eligible for a mid‑season one‑day grand final, a player must have taken part in at least four days of fixtured one‑day matches for their club. Only one‑day fixtures count — days played in two‑day matches do not. A player may only appear in a lower‑grade final if they have played more than half of their qualifying one‑day matches in that grade or below. Extra one‑day games played after the final scheduled one‑day round for a two‑day grade do not add to qualification. If a club has teams in consecutive grades and a qualified higher‑grade player is not selected, he may be chosen in the next grade down. Players may also move up from lower grades provided they meet the four‑day qualification rule. Clubs should submit any uncertain cases to the Association Administrator for an eligibility ruling.
