Dedication has moved on from its humble beginnings as a cricket team made up of school friends to become a national representative team. HRH Prince Leonard, sovereign of the Principality of Hutt River, has signed a royal commission anointing Dedication as the principality's national team. Dedication captain Geoff Pascoe was extremely pleased with Dedication taking the next step up, declaring that "It is a great honour to be chosen to represent the nation of Hutt River, and Dedication will endeavor to live up to the confidence that has been shown in us." Dedication administrators are currently investigating the possibility of attempting to qualify for the ICC Cricket World Cup.
