About Girls Cricket

We are looking forward to welcoming previous and new participants back to Girls Saturday Cricket, with our Stage 1 Junior and Stage 1 Senior teams playing in the NSJCA. Our original Stage 2 team is playing as a Stage 1 Senior team.

Matches are played on Saturday morning (Junior) or afternoon (Senior) and run for about 2 hours.

We are looking for a Girls Cricket Coordinator and Coaches and Managers. Email Naveen, VP Juniors for more information.

In season 21/22 we had Stage 1 and Stage 2 teams playing in the NSJCA (North Shore Junior Cricket Association). The girls had a great time practising the skills they picked up in Master Blasters, and making new friends.

In season 22/23 we had two Stage 1 teams playing in U11 and U13 competitions.

Older players are welcome to play in our Junior Mixed competition. For women interesting in playing in a Senior team, please contact our Senior VPs.

Volunteers needed

Our Girls Only cricket program is made available to girls who wish to play cricket with and against other girls.

The successes of our Girls Saturday Cricket teams and Girls Only Master Blasters programs are founded on the club's ability to organise teams and run skills-based sessions.

We are looking for a Girls Cricket coordinator along with coaches and managers for our programs and teams. Contact Naveen, VP Juniors for more information.

History

Hornsby Ku-ring-gai & Hills District Cricket Association (HK&HDCA) in 1996/97 introduced for the first time a separate Girl’s Competition and KPCC entered two teams, one U/12 and one O/12 (Over 12)

In 2001/02 due to falling numbers, the HKHDCA competition was ended and our teams moved to the NSJCA entering U13 and U16 teams. This continued until 2007/08 season when falling numbers again meant the club could not enter teams. Girls continued to play cricket in our Junior Mixed competition, played in the HKHDCA association.

In season 2018/19, with support from Cricket NSW, we started a Girls Only Master Blasters program and in season 20/21, with players from that program, we were able to enter a Stage 2 team (approx U13) in the NSJCA competition after a 13 year break.

In season 21/22 we continued with our Girls Only Master Blaster program, a Stage 1 and a Stage 2 team.

In season 22/23, our Stage 1 teams (U11 and U13) played in the NSJCA competition. The Girls Master Blaster program is again running on Thursday evenings at Auluba Oval.
