The next generation of Australian cricketers will this month take their first steps towards the Baggy Green, as boys and girls in Cooma, Berridale and Jindabyne join their local MILO in2CRICKET centre.
MILO in2CRICKET was successfully launched in 2008, and the program for children aged 5-10 years old promises to be bigger and better in 2011-12, with three cricket clubs offering the program to boys and girls in the Monaro district.
With a new generation of players coming through in both the men’s and women’s teams at international level, a sharp focus is being put on encouraging the next generation of cricket heroes through the ranks – and MILO in2CRICKET is the natural starting point.
Southern and Illawarra Participation and Growth Officer Kezia Okulicz is excited about how the MILO in2CRICKET program can develop cricket in the Monaro area.
“The launch of the new MILO in2CRICKET program in 2008 created a lot of interest in cricket in the Monaro area. We hope to continue to build on that success this season and help all girls and boys in Monaro have a positive first experience with Australia’s favourite sport,” she said.
The following clubs will this season be conducting MILO in2CRICKET program through the cricket season, Cooma. Berridale and Jindabyne. For more information please call Kezia Okulicz on 0416 488 141 or see www.in2CRICKET.com.au
