The Mount Waverley Cricket Club will be running another “Mini Blast” Cricket Blast program in February and March 2026. This program is designed for boys and girls between 5 and 10 years old.  It aims to share the basic skills of batting, bowling, throwing and fielding in a fun and friendly environment. Children are encouraged to practice at home with their families, to watch cricket and learn a basic understanding of the game.

This excellent program encourages all parents to be involved regardless of their own skill levels, as sharing in their children’s development in cricket is great fun and very rewarding. The program is run by experienced coaches (with the help of some young, developing coaches) and is designed to involve parents as well.

The primary focus at this age group is to provide a positive, enjoyable introduction to the game of cricket using a variety of activities which develop basic cricket skills, physical fitness and encourage social interaction and team building.
