Despite plans to split playing numbers evenly between the North and North-West associations, the North has been allocated the lion’s share of Raiders fixtures, with just two games to be played at Burnie’s West Park.
UTAS Stadium will host the most Raiders games of any venue, with three T20 matches scheduled between December 15 and January 6.
Windsor Park, NTCA No.1 ground and Invermay Park will all host two-day matches, while the NTCA No.2 ground will host a one-day match in round five.
The Raiders will play exactly half of their 18 matches at Northern venues, with the remainder of games to be played in the state’s South.
Two-time Sheffield Shield-winning coach Tim Coyle was unveiled as the Raiders’ inaugural coach in early July with Jason Pearce, Andrew Gower, Roger Brown, Dane Anderson and Nick Hayes in support.
The Raiders’ first game is against Kingborough at Kingston Twin Ovals on October 6.
