Financial & Contract Structure

While the objective of BOND Elite XI is to provide a partial subsidy in the inaugural year (2026) with increasing subsidy in successive years, participation will require a $500 non-refundable deposit from each selected player

to secure their invitation and position on the touring roster.

Tour fees will be inclusive of the core cricketing and operational experience, including matches and fixtures, umpires and match officials, cricket balls and equipment, professional coaching and team management, hotel accommodations, breakfast and lunch on tour days, ground transportation to and from fixtures, team uniforms, media kit and content, training facilities and scheduled practice sessions, and other costs directly affiliated with

the cricketing experience.

Costs incurred directly by the player will include international travel to and from the touring destination, dinners and meals not explicitly included, excursions and rest-day activities, transportation to and from departure airports, and any unsubsidized or non-sponsored portion of tour fees. Detailed financial breakdowns for each tour will be communicated in advance as part of the tour release and contract process.

Player Contracts, Accountability & Conduct

Each tour requires a signed player contract outlining expectations related to behavior, professionalism, preparation, fitness, scheduling, and team conduct both on and off the field.

Standards apply before, during, and after tours. Character is foundational to participation. Talent alone is insufficient.
