Junior Club Cricket is the next step after Cricket Blast. You can play in mixed Club Teams or in Girls only Junior Cricket Competitions in local Associations around NSW.

  • There are smaller team sizes to encourage greater match action for all players

  • 2 hour games
  • Different formats allow girls to progress based on their ability
