Short made his 1st XI debut for Northcote last month after posting a career-best 128 for the 2nd XI in January.
An opening batsman for the successful Victorian Under-17 side, Short has looked comfortable in the highest grade, posting scores of 8, 37, 25 and 21 so far.
All-rounder Hancock put together her second half-century of the season, from just 53 deliveries, for Brunswick Park in Round 21 against Box Hill.
A talent with bat and ball, Hancock was one of Victoria’s best bowlers at the Under-18 National Championships in December, claiming 10 wickets.
Introduced in 2005-06, the award is presented each season to the best under-19 Victorian male and female player based on the their form at Premier Cricket level and in National Championships, with nominations selected by a panel of committee members on a monthly basis.
