Queensland Blind Cricket Association

Queensland Blind Cricket Association are pleased to announce a new sponsorship.

REA Group, also known as realestate.com.au, have recently contributed $10,000 towards high performance at QBCA.

These funds will be allocated towards high performance which includes supporting our Australian representatives in their upcoming tour of Sri Lanka.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to REA and their CEO Cam McIntyre.

🇦🇺 HELP OUR QUEENSLAND PLAYERS REPRESENT AUSTRALIA! 🇱🇰

We are raising funds to help Sean Kendrick, Matthew McCarthy, Chris Gould and Team Manager Darren Kendrick represent Australia in Blind Cricket against Sri Lanka in December 2026.

This is an incredible opportunity for these four Queensland representatives to wear the green and gold and represent their country on the international stage.

This is a self funded tour, meaning the players and team staff face significant costs for flights, accommodation, travel and other expenses associated with the tour.

Every donation, big or small, will help make this opportunity possible and take some of the financial pressure off the team.

If you are unable to donate, simply sharing this GoFundMe with your friends, family and networks would mean so much.

Let's get behind Sean, Matthew, Chris and Darren and help them represent Australia! 🇦🇺🏏

Thank you for your support! ❤️
