As a progressive club who fielded our first girls team in the inaugural RDCA girls cricket competition in 2017, we are excited to expand our female cricket program to cater for girls and women of all ages, abilities and interests. From young girls and aspiring juniors, to women who are interested in playing competitive games or wish to focus on enjoyment and exercise, we can offer you a great option.
Whilst our players in the competitive formats love to experience individual and team success, a big focus is upon providing a friendly, social and inclusive environment. In addition to offering the opportunity to improve their cricket skills, participants will enjoy the social and physical benefits that our female program provides.
If having fun in a safe, relaxed environment is of more interest to you than playing competitive games, then check out our new Social Sixes program specifically designed for women. Or for young girls beginning their cricketing journey, our Junior Girls Blasters Program is the perfect place to start.
All our girls and women players, together with their families, are integral members of our community oriented Club. As a Club, we will continue to do all that we can to support our female program and ensure that it is a vibrant part of our identity.
