The concept involves fast, fun exciting games of cricket just like the KFC Big Bash league, with music, lots of big hits, classic catches and everyone gets an equal go.
T20 Blast fills the void between the popular Milo In2 Cricket program and the Weston Shield, which is competitive cricket for 10 to 14 year olds.
As Yass falls in the zone of the Sydney Thunder, T20 Blast participants will wear the colours of the Thunder. Also, each participating child receives a MILO T20 Blast participation pack with a t-shirt, cap, bag, MILO giveaways and other KFC T20 Big Bash League promotional items.
Yass Junior Cricket Registration Day will be held on Saturday September 20 between 9am and 11am at Victoria Park. Further information can be found at www.yassjca.nsw.cricket.com.au.
