North Geelong Cricket Club

Today, we held our first session for the Ready for Senior Cricket Program. The Ready for Cricket program is designed to help our junior players confidently transition into senior cricket.

Firstly, we'd like to thank our main mentor, Peter Herrick, and volunteers coaches Tanner Hay, Gus Cranny, Benny Demasi, Connor Hangan and Tayne Hewson for taking ownership of the groups today.

Today was batting focused, and it was great to see our crew listen to the coaches, dive in, and put in the work. More importantly, everyone who attended looked to have enjoyed the session.

A huge thank you to Ritchie Bros. for proudly sponsoring the program and supporting the development of our young Magpies.

The Social Committee has been busy locking away these events, which starts with our Season Launch on Sept 20th.

🏏 GETTING READY FOR SENIOR CRICKET PROGRAM 2026 🏏

North Geelong Cricket Club is proud to introduce our Getting Ready for Senior Cricket Program—designed to help our junior players confidently transition into senior cricket.

The program will prepare our next generation of Magpies through:

⚫ Technical skills and game awareness
⚫ Professionalism and club expectations
⚫ Confidence for senior cricket

Our goal is to help each player understand what senior cricket requires, develop their skills and prepare them to make a positive contribution both on and off the field.

This is about more than cricket—it is about developing confident young people who understand the standards, behaviours and values of the North Geelong Cricket Club.

A huge thank you to Ritchie Bros. for proudly sponsoring the program and supporting the development of our young Magpies.

Building the next generation of Magpies. 🖤🤍
