Program to help young talents

07 Oct, 2009 03:02 PM
The next generation of Australian cricketers will this month take their first steps towards the Baggy Green, as boys and girls across New South Wales join their local MILO in2CRICKET centre.

MILO in2CRICKET was successfully launched last year and the program for children aged 5-10 years old will be bigger and better with 250 cricket clubs, including Warren, offering the program.

Junior cricket will begin locally on Saturday, October 24.

Australian vice-captain Michael Clarke can vouch for the impact of a program like MILO in2CRICKET, being a graduate of the system.

Commonwealth Bank Southern Star Ellyse Perry also praised the program, in particular its focus on encouraging girls to participate.

The program also has high-profile ambassadors in recently retired cricketing great Adam Gilchrist and television personality Nicky Buckley, who will be involved with MILO in2CRICKET activities across the country.
