The success of the Burwood Uniting Canterbury Cricket Club juniors program is a highlight across their two premierships in Burt Shield and Carr Shield.

8 of our 1st XI premiership players played juniors for our club - a fantastic achievement.

Dubbed WINGS, this program is a mental health support system set up to provide psychology sessions to our members, free of charge!

At the Bulls, we strongly believe in the role we have to play in reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and ensure that every single member of our club is able to get the support they need, when they need it.

SHAYNE BLACKWELL's hatrick

Ball one of Shayne Blackwell's 7th over was a full toss which fell short of the square leg boundary and was caught. Next ball, caught behind with a great catch by Hillsy before it happened - a cross-seam straight ball nicked to Darren Earp to complete Shayne's Hatrick.

A nice moment was shared between Jake and Shayne as the brothers embraced in a moment of joy and pride in memory of their Father, Tony.
