Queensland Cricket is rolling out a special opportunity for young girls in Townsville these school holidays with a free ‘Girls Come and Try’ cricket day. This event is designed to introduce girls aged 8 to 13 to the sport, whether they’re newcomers or seasoned players eager to sharpen their skills.
The session will be held on Friday, September 27, from 9 am to 12.30 pm at the Riverway Cricket Nets. All necessary equipment will be provided, ensuring that participants can fully immerse themselves in the experience without needing to bring anything along.
In addition to the cricket activities, the day will include a refreshing swim in the Riverway Lagoons at 11.45 am, followed by a sausage sizzle to round off the morning. It’s not just about learning the game but also about enjoying a day out with friends, making it an ideal way for girls to decide if cricket is the sport for them.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to invite friends and neighbours who might be interested in giving cricket a try. With numbers steadily growing for the upcoming Term 4 Girls 12 & Under League, this event offers a great chance for potential new players to get a taste of the action in a fun and supportive environment.
Queensland Cricket is looking forward to seeing many new faces and hopes this event will inspire more young girls to join the exciting world of cricket.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.
Thank you for your support.
