Australias workplace oversight body, the FairWork Ombudsman, has queried Cricket Australias contract clauses around female players, compelling the chief executive James Sutherland to state that policies relating to pregnancy, maternity leave and carer support are all under urgent review.Sutherland confirmed that the ombudsman had been in contact with CA on Friday, following the raising of issues around female contracts in news coverage of ongoing pay negotiations between the board and the Australian Cricketers Association. While stating that CA will co-operate fully with any investigation, Sutherland lashed out at the ACA for how the contract clauses had come to light, adding that the players association had agreed to them in the first place.We will co-operate fully with the Ombudsman, and welcome their inquiries because it is always our intention to provide the best support for all our players, Sutherland said. We are extremely disappointed that this issue has been raised by the ACA.Their senior executives were fully involved in negotiating, amending and then agreeing on the contract for women players in the first half of 2015. As the ACA has shown no objection to this contract, they should take responsibility for their role in developing the current policy.Late on Saturday the ACA responded to Sutherlands criticism of the decision to publicly raise the issues around CAs pregnancy policy for female players.* In the formation of the ACAs MOU submission, female players having to warrant they were not pregnant was one issue among many that was raised by our members throughout our consultation, the ACA said in a statement.The ACA rejects the proposition that it should not have raised the issue; silence is not the solution. It is critical that these areas are addressed throughout the MOU process.Furthermore, to hear that female players stand to receive better terms and conditions under a new MOU is pleasing and we will be working to ensure that all players are protected under a new agreement. Eighteen months ago, the ACA was consulted on the development of the relevant policy and contract, and suggested some improvements which CA accepted. CA said yesterday it took expert advice on the policy at the time it was issued.Further heat had been placed on CA by a BBC interview overnight with the ECB director of cricket Clare Connor, who stated that all England women players were eligible for the same maternity leave entitlements offered to all ECB employees, and that they were not required to declare whether or not they were pregnant before signing a contract.The situation with England players is very different from that, Connor said. We treat our centrally contracted players as we would treat any other female non-playing ECB employee. So, they are supported by the full terms of our maternity conditions for all employees, so Heather Knight would be treated the same as me, for example. And they are certainly not required to declare if they are pregnant before signing their ECB contract.I think Cricket Australia have responded to what came out in the press by saying that this clause is to protect the players and to make sure that the medical officers and the physios and everybody are fully aware of the health status of their players. I think, in this day and age, you cant mandate such things. I think it is up to an individual to take responsibility for their own health and whether they are putting themselves or an unborn baby at risk by playing sport, and in terms of the progression of a possible pregnancy. So, it doesnt make great reading, does it?Sutherland denied the above clause had been a stumbling block for women players signing to play in CA sanctioned competitions. As I said yesterday, the pregnancy clause has never affected a female players right to sign a contract, and we have never, nor would we ever, discriminate against anyone on those grounds, he said. It has only been about ensuring the safety of our players.Despite this, we will continue to focus on ensuring Cricket Australia does the very best for our women players to grow their game and encourage more girls and women to pick up a bat and ball, with their health and safety always at the forefront of everything we do.Another issue expected to be placed under the spotlight is the discrepancy in medical support offered to women players in the Womens National Cricket League, the equivalent of the Sheffield Shield. A doctor is a mandatory presence at all mens matches, plus Womens BBL games, but WNCL matches are only served by the presence of a paramedic.*09.55GMT, December 17: This article was updated with the ACA statement Detroit Lions Jerseys . A lawyer for MLB, Matthew Menchel, confirmed Wednesday the league dropped its case against Biogenesis of America, its owner Anthony Bosch and several other individuals. The lawsuit had accused Biogenesis and Bosch of conspiring with players to violate their contracts by providing them with banned performance-enhancing substances. Kenny Golladay Youth Jersey . Catch all the action on TSN2 at 11pm et/8pm pt. The nine-time Big 12 champion Jayhawks are positioning themselves for another title, as they have run out to a flawless 6-0 mark in conference play thus far. http://www.shopdetroitlionsnfl.com/lions-calvin-johnson-black-jersey/ . -- The goal posts lying flat on the field, Arizonas fans lingered on the field, congregating around the locker room entrance nearly 30 minutes after rushing out of the stands. Calvin Johnson Womens Jersey . Thats not a comment on the suspension that banished the Portland Winterhawks general manager and coach from his Western Hockey League teams bench for most of the 2012-13 season. Jarrad Davis Youth Jersey . He said Tuesday thats a big reason why he is now the new coach of the Tennessee Titans. Whisenhunt said he hit it off quickly with Ruston Webster when interviewing for the job Friday night. GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Bryant Crawford was going to take Wake Forests last shot. That much was obvious.The only question was where it would come from.Crawford hit a deep 3-pointer with 2 seconds left to lift Wake Forest past UNC Greensboro 78-75 on Friday night.Hes fearless, coach Danny Manning said, and we love that about him.John Collins had 17 points and 13 rebounds, and Crawford finished with 17 points for the Demon Deacons (8-2). They blew a 16-point second-half lead before Crawford shot them to their third straight win.R.J. White scored a season-high 22 points and Diante Baldwin finished with 18 for UNC Greensboro (7-3), which had its six-game winning streak snapped.Baldwin banked in a runner with 28.6 seconds left that tied it at 75. Wake Forest called a timeout with 18 seconds left to set up its final sequence. Manning said the plan was for Crawford to come off a high ball screen but he just waved everybody off.Austin Arians inbounded the ball in the backcourt to Crawford, who dribbled most of the clock away before making a move right with about 10 seconds left. Crawford slipped near the 3-point arc but recovered and buried a contested 3-pointer from a logo on the floor about 25 feet out.I actually think (slipping) was a good thing because when I started driving, there were still like 7 seconds left (and) I was going to pull it out regardless, Crawford said.Crawford then picked off Francis Alonsos deep inbounds pass and flung the ball toward the scoreboard as time expired.Keyshawn Woods added 16 points and Dinos Mitoglou had 11 before fouling out with 1:01 remaining for Wake Forest.BIG PICTUREWake Forest: Manning will have plenty of teaching points after this one to go over with the Demon Deacons after they led 59-43 with less than 15 minutes to play. They had serious trouble getting stops in the second half, allowing the Spartans to shoot 56 percent after the break.We cant apologize for winning, Manning said. Were disappoinnted that we had to win in this fashion because we had a 16-point lead in the second half, but Im not going to take anything away from UNCG.dddddddddddd ... We just had a guy make a tough shot.UNC Greensboro: One of the best starts in school history is, well, history. With a victory, the Spartans would have been 8-2 for the first time since they opened 12-2 in 1994-95. Instead, they fell to 0-10 all-time against Wake Forest and 2-55 against Atlantic Coast Conference schools, never having beaten one at home.But this felt different for the Spartans, who werent at all content to simply be competitive.The team we know we have this year, we expect to win those games (and not just) be close with big schools like that, White said. We have confidence in all our guys.STAR WATCHCollins had his fifth straight double-double, and the Demon Deacons are 5-1 this season when he has one. But he only attempted two shots after halftime, hitting one. His most impressive individual highlight might have come with about 8 1/2 minutes left in the first half when he blocked a dunk attempt by James Dickey. That sent Wake Forest back the other way with Mitchell Wilbekin burying a 3-pointer that made it a seven-point game.STAT SHEETWake Forest entered outrebounding its opponents by about five per game, but were outworked on the glass by the Spartans for a significant portion of this game and the teams had 31 boards apiece.UP NEXTWake Forest: After a week off for exams, the Demon Deacons visit No. 13 Xavier on Dec. 17 in the Skip Prosser Classic.UNC Greensboro: The Spartans play host to Southern Wesleyan on Dec. 14 before heading across the state to face UNC Asheville five days later.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap.---More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.
