The discovery that cricket was first played in Tauranga in 1866 started some research that has reached a conclusion with the writing of "From the Government Paddock to the Bay Oval - One Hundred and Fifty Years of Cricket in Tauranga".

This is not a definitive history of the growth of cricket in Tauranga City but rather numerous snapshots of the game during the last 150 years.
