Anston Cricket Club

🏏💙 A NEW ERA AT ACC! 💙🏏

On 27/08/26, history was made at Anston Cricket Club as our very first U11 Girls’ team took to the field against Wickersley CC at S20 Boundary! 🌟

For 9 of our girls, it was their first ever experience of playing in a match situation — and what an amazing performance they put in! 👏

We couldn’t be prouder of every single one of you. The enthusiasm, effort and enjoyment you showed was fantastic to see, and this is only the beginning! 💙

A huge thank you to the coaches, parents and everyone supporting and encouraging our girls. 🙌

We’re so excited to see what the future of girls’ cricket at ACC looks like! 🏏💙
