Milo in2 Cricket at Hawthorn CC - 2009/10

“Learning the skills of Cricket whilst having fun”

Hawthorn CC is now in its ninth year of conducting the Milo in2 Cricket (formerly Have-A-Go) program, endorsed by Cricket Australia and Cricket Victoria for boys and girls aged from 5 to 10 years of age. Last year's participants joining the program had a thoroughly enjoyable time learning the skills of cricket and team sport with many expected to join our U10s teams this year.

*Milo Cricket Kits - Each participant receives a Back-Pack, Bat, Ball, SPF 30+T-Shirt, Bucket Hat and Milo give aways.

It’s a fantastic way to teach the young kids the basic skills of cricket with coaching from Hawthorn CC senior cricketers and assistance from parent volunteers. Each session teaches a special skill and then groups of eight play a double wicket “match” at the end. Above all, everyone has fun.

We may have the opportunity to participate in a special exhibition at the MCG Boxing Day Test or at a Pura Cup match at the Junction Oval during the season – more details later.

For more information, contact the Milo Co-Ordinator Aaron Jacks on 0401 674 241 or  send an email to – easytiger@iinet.net.au

The Hawthorn Milo Group was privileged to be part of the MCG Boxing Day Test as part of the on field entertainment on Day 4, Thursday 29th December, 2005. The following children took part in a double wicket exhibition on the "hallowed" turf of the newly completed stadium:

Ben Logan, Michael Phyland, Andrew Cook, Tyson Alcock, Nelson Wade, Troy Sutton, Hugo Marmara,
Jonno Kelly, Alistair Graham, Alex Westcott, Sam Woolley, Tom Scherf & Will McIlroy.


We all had fun and showed how much our skills have improved in recent weeks. Thanks to the many parents, grandparents and friends that came along to support our "cricketers of the future". Also thanks to Gary Brown @ Staff from Cricket Victoria who did a magnificent job in organising the event.
