Monash Glen Waverley Junior Cricketers
The club, was established in 1974 by Robert Maxwell Morrow (OAM), plays our home games at Larpent Reserve, Hammence Street, Glen Waverley.
For the first 43 years we operated as a self-contained club - with at least 4 teams in each grade, meaning that there were friendships an rivalries developed over seasons where the kids got to play against each other 3 or 4 times (+ finals). Games were played in a round-robin format on specialised wickets on a modified rules basis designed to ensure equal and fair participation by ALL players. This ensured that each player batted and bowled in every match.
With the introduction of Cricket Australia's Junior Pathway Program in 2017-2018, the rest of the cricketing world caught up to our way of thinking. With the vast majority of parents wanting to play against other clubs, we "bit the bullet" and entered teams in the Box Hill Reporter District Cricket Association's Super 7's, Fast 9's and Under 12's grades. Super 7's and Fast 9's are skills-based grades that have effectively replaced Under 10's & Under 12 C grade competitions. They are a great way for the kids to progress from the Woolworths Junior Blasters Program that we also run each Saturday morning during the season.
We have also partnered with Monash Cricket Club for over 10 years to provide a smooth transition to more competitive grades (Under 12 A grade, right through to Under 17's, senior cricket, and even Veterans cricket).
Monash Cricket Club
The Monash Cricket Club has been in existence for over 60 years (taking into account the history of the merged clubs). It is located in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne and is a true community cricket club. The club has fielded a number of junior teams, a women’s team and senior men’s teams. We cater for players of all ages and abilities and have grounds in Clayton (Carlson Reserve) and Mount Waverley (Tally Ho).
The name "Monash Cricket Club" (which we like to think is the only true MCC with a finger on the pulse of the common man) first appeared in the Southern Districts Cricket League in the season of 1995–96. The club was formed following a merger between High Street Road Cricket Club and Clayton St. Faiths Cricket Club, both clubs of which have a strong and proud tradition going back many years.
The success of Monash, can be attributed as much to the committed and passionate committee that the club has always enjoyed as much as the on-field talent with which we have been blessed. As any club will tell you, a strong club is measured off-field firstly and from this strength flows successful on-field performances.
