Wanderers Cricket - Round 9 Wrap

December 13th / 14th, 2025. We've officially reached the half-way point of the 2025/26 season, which also marks the end of club matches for 2025! We hope everyone is enjoying their cricket and looking forward to returning in 2026. Of course, everyone deserves a much needed break, which is a great opportunity to refresh for the second half of the cricket season (particularly for parents and coaches, let alone our players!). Put your feet up and settle in for the Ashes; with th

Wanderers Cricket - Round 8 Wrap

December 6th / 7th, 2025. Well that was a hot one! Somewhat of a shame that we had to abandon a host of matches on Saturday, although some of our early morning junior teams were lucky enough to get a game in before the stifling heat took hold. Read on below to catch all the weekend's action - plenty of fantastic match reports on offer! Thank you so much for everyone who braved the heat to come down to Blackmore on Friday night for a cold drink and our BBQ. It was great having

Wanderers Cricket - Round 7 Wrap

November 29th / 30th, 2025. What a fantastic weekend of junior cricket! Results are one thing, but reading this week's match reports and all of the individual highlights, acts of sportsmanship and little stories from our games of cricket, it's clear that there's always more to it than the result! We only have a couple of weekends to play before our summer break, so enjoy your cricket whilst you can! We're looking forward to our clubhouse event on Friday and we hope to see ple

Wanderers Cricket - Round 6 Wrap

November 22nd / 23rd, 2025. What a week of cricket! A two day Ashes test match in Perth left everyone wondering how to pass the time on Sunday. Thankfully there was still plenty of junior cricket to be played (despite some showers)! This week featured a flurry of new additions to our season Honour Roll across our junior teams. Particularly noteworthy is six new additions to the fielding honour roll - looks like extra catching and fielding practice might be paying off for so

Reminder that before we all take a break for the holidays, the cricket club is hosting its annual " Red & Black Friday " event at the Blackmore clubhouse. This is a great chance to get together as a club & community to reflect on the first half of the cricket season AND support your club by purchasing some dinner and drinks. The best part is, the Ashes will be played on o

Wanderers Cricket - Round 3 Wrap

November 1st / 2nd, 2025. It's been a sombre week in cricket across the nation, with the tragic loss of young Ben Austin, from Ferntree Gully Cricket Club, Melbourne. Cricket is characterised by fun, friendship and sportsmanship, so it is heartbreaking to hear of a young player losing his life in such circumstances. We at Leichhardt Wanderers are shocked and deeply saddened by the tragedy and our thoughts are with Ben's family, friends and teammates. At many cricket fields ac

Wanderers Cricket - Round 2 Wrap

October 25th / 26th, 2025. "We are Leichhardt Wanderers Through and Through" is the club's motto, which you would have seen used across our communication channels and website (and used widely by the LW Rugby League club). But what does it mean? Well it means a lot of things to different people, but to me, it represents the strong club and community spirit the Wanderers are known for. This means an inclusive environment for our people to enjoy playing their sport of choice, wh
