Verification notes
TASK 4 re-check (2026-09-26): downgraded to unverified. The original evidence (canterburycricket.org.nz/about-us/) is a staff/history page, not a program page - re-checked specifically for a dedicated academy/high-performance page and could not find one. Canterbury Cricket's actual pathway structure is real (named staff: Richard Pithey, Head Coach Talent & Performance Pathways; Iain Robertson, Female Pathway Coach) but is described only via named staff roles, references to 'Male Pathways Handbook 2026/27' and 'Female Pathways Handbook 2026/27' (PDF documents, not fetched), and a 'Pathway to Performance' programme that on inspection trains coaches, not players. No page was found showing the academy/pathway program itself with a location and a way to enrol or make contact, which this project's standard for governing bodies requires. Left unverified rather than upgraded on staff names and a facility mention alone.
