Cricket Scotland refuses to tolerate online abuse of any of its current or past players and staff.
The governing body takes its responsibilities around duty of care to its employees extremely seriously and is supporting those who have been the target of recent abuse on social media platforms.
Cricket is a sport for all. Nobody within our game should be put in a position whereby they must endure abuse of any kind, either online or in person.
All avenues of action are being considered against those who abuse Cricket Scotland players and staff. The governing body will not hesitate to act in the strongest possible terms against those who choose to commit such acts.
Cricket Scotland, formerly the Scottish Cricket Union, is the governing body for cricket in Scotland, based at the National Cricket Academy in Edinburgh. Established in 1908 and restructured in 2001, it became an ICC Associate Member in 1994. The organization includes three sub-associations: the East of Scotland Cricket Association, Western District Cricket Union, and Aberdeenshire Cricket Association.
