A Stellar Season for our Ivanhoe Saints Juniors

The Ivanhoe Saints junior cricket program has once again proven to be a force to be reckoned with this season, and the outstanding performances of our young players were celebrated at the Presentation Night on Friday, 28th March. The evening itself was a fantastic success, with perfect weather, delicious food from the food trucks, and a fantastic atmosphere at Ivanhoe Park. With 65 players in attendance, the event was filled with positive energy, and the vibes were nothing short of amazing as we celebrated the achievements of our junior and Craig Shield teams.

Our junior cricketers have shown incredible dedication and talent, and this year, they delivered some remarkable results on the field. From the youngest players in the U10s to the experienced Craig Shield players, there was no shortage of outstanding performances.
