Balwyn Saints and Blasters Cricket Club
Cricket partially explained – when a player that’s in the side that’s in goes out, and when they’re out they come in and the next player goes in until they’re out. You in? Whether you want to start playing or return to playing cricket, or just love the idea of more exercise in a great social setting, then come to the Balwyn Saints Cricket Club where whatever your ability, you are welcome.
The Balwyn Saints Cricket Club is an amateur cricket club based in Balwyn & North Balwyn in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne and we consider it to be the home of cricket for everyone in Balwyn. The Balwyn Saints is a club with a proud and successful history. We are always looking to grow and bring in new players.
