The Mount Waverley Junior Cricket Club offers children in the Monash community the facilities, know-how and support to nurture and develop their cricketing talent, aspirations and dreams. Run exclusively by volunteers, the Junior Club prides itself on the quality, values and vision of those charged with the responsibility of assisting children through their developmental years in the sport.

The Club offers junior player development for boys and girls from beginners through to advanced supporting various pathways for development and where possible, our Sunday U15 and U17 teams play home games on turf.

Last season saw the Club support more than 240 junior players participate in competitive inter-club cricket with the majority of teams participating in finals and three going on to win premierships in their respective age groups.

The Mt Waverley junior program is affiliated with both Inner South East Cricket (ISEC) for mixed competitions, and All-Girls Cricket Competition (AGCC) for the all girls teams. Both leagues form under Cricket Southern Bayside (CSB).
