Ballarat Cricket Association says any club members breaching social media policies face sanctions.

The BCA posted on its Facebook page on Friday that it had issued its "first and final warning" on the matter.

The stand comes after what it deemed as the posting of inappropriate comments on social media platforms made in response to decisions handed down by the BCA pennant committee in relation to rain-impacted matches scheduled for Saturday, October 26.

The BCA statement included: "We would appreciate all clubs remind their members that social media is not the place to voice their displeasure or disagreement with any decision that is made on playing cricket or not playing cricket."

It further pointed out the pennant committee members had been left "disheartened by the blatant abuse" received for calling off juniors and letting seniors make their own assessment on play.

"No further action was taken as a follow up message was deemed appropriate as a first and final warning.

"Any BCA club member from now onwards shown to be breaching policies will be sanctioned as deemed appropriate by the BCA board."

The stern message came as rain again has the potential to impact on Saturday.

The BCA will made a call junior matches by 7.30am.

No overall decisions will be made with regard to senior matches owing to fixtures being day-two of two-day games.

The BCA says all matches will continue as scheduled with umpires and captains making the decisions on suitability of play at each venue.
