Trust, Respect, Humility the 3 words that describe our club's culture
Our club is based at Heffron Park Maroubra and fields teams in the local junior competition from the U8's to the U16's. While our teams are competitive we do not have a "must win" attitude, instead we want our children to enjoy cricket and to develop in an environment that is encouraging and rewarding.
