Victorian Cricket Infrastructure Strategy

Cricket Victoria, in partnership with Cricket Australia and the Victorian Government, has released its Victorian Cricket Infrastructure Strategy (VCIS). This strategy sets out a coordinated, long-term vision for planning, developing, and investing in cricket facilities across Victoria over the next 10 years.

The provision of quality facilities are central to delivering a great cricket experience for players, coaches, umpires, volunteers, and supporters. The VCIS aims to ensure these environments remain safe, welcoming, and accessible for all.

Created through in-depth consultation with local cricket, all 79 Victorian councils, government agencies, Cricket Australia, and key sport sector partners, the VCIS provides a unified framework for future facility development in both metropolitan and regional communities.

A focus on partnerships as part of planning and investment.
