Women's Social Cricket 2026 / 2027

Never held a bat? Perfect.

Come join us on a Sunday for women’s social cricket at Kalang
Park.

One hour, one afternoon a week where we get outside and have fun with other local women.

There's no experience needed and it’s suitable for all levels of fitness. Most women have
never played at all. Everyone gets shown what to do, goes at their own pace, and the whole
thing is a lot more laughing than it is coaching. This is all about having fun, making
connections and learning the basics along the way.

Come to the free try day on 18 October and decide after.

How it works

1. First, just come and have a look

Our free try day is Sunday 18 October, 2pm to 3pm at Kalang Park. Turn up, have a go, meet a few people. No cost and no commitment.

2. Then, five Sunday afternoons

Starting Sunday 25 October, we run for five
Sundays through to 29 November (skipping cup weekend). One hour each week,
2pm to 3pm. You'll learn to bat, bowl and field, and you'll get better at it without really
trying. $50 covers all 5 sessions. The sessions (Social Sixes) are specifically
designed for women and are run by Cricket Victoria.

3. Then, if you fancy it, some short games

After the five weeks, we play a series of
casual Sunday games against women from other local social teams. Short, sharp (1
hour), friendly and not remotely serious. It's already included in your $50, so it's there
if you want to participate. Play one or play them all, we know you're busy, it’s a very
casual commitment.

A few things women ask us:

I've genuinely never played. Is that a problem?

No. It's the most common starting
point. Everything is taught from scratch.

Do I need to be fit?

No. Go at whatever pace suits you. Plenty of us stop for a chat.

Can I bring a friend?

Please do. Bring two.

What if I can't make it every week?

Come when you can. There's no penalty for
missing a Sunday.

Is it competitive?

Not at all. Sundays are super relaxed and summer games are
short, sharp, 1-hour friendly ones against nearby clubs, and they're optional!
