There was no cricket organised or played by a Kiama team during the 1865/66 season.
The Britannia Cricket Club lapsed, and no others came forward during this season to organise any matches against other Clubs within the district.
The match here, between a Combined Sydney XI and a selected best XXII from the South Coast included players who were from the Kiama district, and thus it is included here for posterity, but without being included in Kiama records.
