    In Sydney, Hannah Darlington, an Indigenous cricketer from the NSW breakers will be on hand to coach and mentor, together with Andrew Gordon who represented NSW in the Imparja cup for over a decade. There will be other very special guests and plenty of Cricket NSW staff assisting as well.

    Lunch will be provided for all participants.

    Below are flyers with links to register. If transportation to the program is difficult, the Cricket NSW Foundation can look to assist participants getting to and from Feighan Park in Warners Bay and Cricket Central in Silverwater.

    This is an ABC story about the Indigenous Pathway Program that was held in Orange last month which was incredible.  https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-02-13/indigenous-cricketers-visit-orange-to-inspire-next-generation/101956794
