Recently, our cricket team headed to Katandra School as a part of the Sporting Schools program.

Over four weeks, 36 students enjoyed being outside and playing cricket and we hope they enjoyed it as much as we did.

Here is a little snippet of the fun times.

• The Victorian Development and exhibition matches weekend took place on the 26th and 27th of March for the Men’s and Women’s Deaf team as well as the Intellectually Disabled (ID) team.

• Day 1 was at the CitiPower Centre with some great guest speakers including former players Sarah Elliot, Graeme Vimpani, Victoria’s Strength and Conditioning coach Adrian Mott. There were some fantastic education sessions, a shirt presentation and team/individual photos of the teams.

• Day 2 took place at Casey fields in beautiful weather with the ID and Men’s deaf team playing each other in 2 x T20s while the Women’s Deaf team took on two Women’s Community Competition teams in Frankston Women’s and Brighton District.

All games were played in great spirit with Australian coaches for the ID and Men’s Deaf team in attendance in preparation for the upcoming International inclusion series against England being played in June.

• The Victorian Blind team took on NSW in Wodonga over Saturday and Sunday for a 40 over and 20 over match which served as the teams first match against another state in over two years. Victoria came out on top winning both matches.

• These days provided the teams a form of replacement for the National Cricket Inclusion Championships which were cancelled for 2022 due to COVID while also allowing them to come together as squads and represent their state.

Last night at the Citipower Centre, the annual Community Cricket Awards were held.

The last two years have been exceptionally difficult as we all navigated a pandemic, yet the cricketing community has stood up and delivered and we couldn't be more prouder.

We are indebted to these wonderful people who do so much to help our game continue to thrive 🏏 👏🏻

All players will have an eye on national selection with the International Inclusion Series against England taking place in June this year.

Get along this Sunday the 27th of March from 9am to Casey Fields see some great cricket being played!
