Never played cricket? No worries!
This game is for everyone, and it’s all about those feel-good vibes..
In Women’s Social Smash everyone gets a go and no one’s out. It’s a fun, fast-paced game for women of all ages.
The main objective is to join in and have a great time:
• Fresh air in the lungs and sunshine on the face
• A few extra smile lines, courtesy of some new mates
• Some brand spanking new cricket skills to show off
The program reflects the values of our wonderful women, such as a focus on health and wellbeing, social connection, and enjoyment.
With high energy modified games, it maximises time on the most entertaining components of the game and gives everyone the chance to have a go at it all. At stumps, there’s more opportunity to connect and celebrate newfound skills and friends.
