More than $5.7 million from the Community Cricket Program will go towards establishing new hubs at Ringwood’s Jubilee Park, Casey Fields in Cranbourne East and the Hume Community Cricket Hub in Greenvale, while planning is well underway at Alfred Road Recreation Reserve in Werribee.

The four centres will encourage the development of future home-grown cricket players.

In Greenvale, $1.5 million will go towards a six-wicket indoor training centre and a new pavilion with female friendly change rooms, to complement the existing three ovals at the Greenvale Recreation Reserve.

More than $1.3 million will go towards a revamped pavilion at Casey Fields Regional Cricket Pavilion and at Jubilee Park in Ringwood, $2.9 million will go towards the construction of a five-wicket indoor cricket training centre.

The training centre at Jubilee Park will complement a new two-storey pavilion, recently receiving $2 million in funding from the Victorian Government.

Planning is underway with the City of Wyndham for a metropolitan hub at Alfred Road Recreation Reserve, with funding to be announced in the coming weeks.

Since 2019, the Community Cricket Program has invested more than $9.6 million in 45 cricket infrastructure projects across Victoria.
