It was a long time coming but in May 1973 the Nepean District Cricket Association received an invitation to join the NSW Cricket Association Sydney Grade Competition. The wheels has been in motion since 1966. True, it was a frustratingly long process but because Nepean was a member of the Hawkesbury Cricket Council, which was a Country Council affiliated to the NSWCA through Country Cricket, and Nepean's application had to be submitted through the HCC, there was much discussion, many letters and follow-up meetings.

The, in 1972 the NSWCA sub-committee was commissioned by the Executive Committee to review, a) the system of residential qualifications, b) boundaries of the Sydney Grade Clubs, c) inclusions of the peripheral Country Councils - Hawkesbury, Illawarra, Hunter Valley and the Newcastle DCA - in the Sydney grade competitions.
