Australian under 19 captain Jason Sangha, his well performed team mate Param Uppal, leg-spinner Dan Fallins, towering fast bowler Mickey Edwards and fellow quick Liam Hatcher have all been upgraded from rookie contracts.
They replace Maddinson, wicket-keeper Jay Lenton, who have not been re-contracted, Gurinder Sandhu (Tasmania) and Ed Cowan and Doug Bollinger, who have retired.
Wicketkeeper Baxter Holt, batting all-rounder Jack Edwards, the younger brother of Mickey, and fast bowler Ryan Hadley were among seven NSW players in the squad that lost the final of the under 19 World Cup to India in New Zealand earlier this year.
Run-hungry young opener Ryan Hackney and raw fast bowler Chad Sammut have also been added to the rookie list while batsman Jordan Gauci has been retained.
