Fun with cricket

By JODIE SYMONDS

YARRA Valley Cricket is calling on girls under the age of 14 to play competitive cricket this season.
The club is calling on girls to be assigned to Launching Place, Seville, Healesville and Wandin Cricket.
Secretary of Yarra Valley Cricket Club and Launching Place Leah Parker said the aim was to add a fun element to the game.
“It’s to get girls familiarised with cricket without the pressure; it’s a fun way,” Ms Parker said.
Yarra Valley Cricket is looking to create four teams of eight girls who will all get the chance to bat and ball.
