Woolworths Cricket Blast is the ultimate playground for kids of all abilities where the action is fast and the fun never stops. Whether you’re a first-time batter or backyard cricket superstar, Cricket Blast is an exciting journey for 5-10 year-olds filled with laughter, growth, and unforgettable memories.
The jam-packed weekly 60 to 90-minute sessions are designed to get children to learn the skills of cricket through fun, modified games in a safe and inclusive environment. All equipment is provided, and children wear shirts that have their name printed on them, to feel like a cricket star on TV.
Woolworths Cricket Blast is also the perfect opportunity to spend some quality time with your children, and for parents and carers who want to be involved to learn some
new cricket skills along the way. Plus, your involvement can make a positive impact on their enjoyment, skill progression and overall achievement.
Cricket Blast is offered in a variety of formats, from mixed programs to girls-only programs to all-abilities Cricket Blast. Last year, during the 2023-24 season, a remarkable 32,000 children enrolled into Woolworths Cricket Blast to play and love the sport. Of these, over 10,000 were girls.
Woolworths’ ongoing support of Cricket Blast often goes above and beyond our partnership details and Cricket NSW is very grateful for the support. Many of the programs in earlier seasons received free fruit and water from the local Woolworths stores, enabling our cricket staff to provide healthy snacks for our participants, making it a truly wholesome experience.
So come join the fun at Woolworths Cricket Blast!
