The collapse of a tour operator specialising in junior cricket tours has left dozens of Sydney parents and leading coaches out of pocket to the tune of $1 million and shattered emerging players’ dreams of a trip of a lifetime to India and the Caribbean.
The sudden downfall of the tour operator has infuriated coaches and parents and devastated up-and-coming players who were booked for trips abroad. Dawson said the abandoned Indian adventure and another tournament Tyler cancelled on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast in July had cost parents of children coached at his academy more than $380,000 and caused reputational damage to his business, which also sustained losses of $40,000.
Kevin and Andrea Tyler are listed as the largest creditor . Others include National Australia Bank , American Express and small business loan firm Bizcap . Lyon and former NSW batsman Nic Bertus, co-owner of the Hills Cricket Academy, were also due to take teams to Barbados in July for an under-19 tournament there that was priced by Tyler at $8500 a head and which had been fully paid for.
Bertus feels particularly slighted as Tyler worked in an office upstairs at his indoor cricket centre at Seven Hills and he knew him well enough to invite to his wedding.
