Nominating a Volunteer
At Subiaco MArist Cricket Club, we know that cricket in Western Australia thrives because of the dedication of our volunteers. From coaches and team managers to scorers, umpires, and behind-the-scenes helpers, our game simply wouldn’t be possible without their passion and commitment.
To shine a light on these efforts, WA Cricket has launched the “Thank a Cricket Volunteer” initiative, a statewide program designed to recognise and celebrate cricket volunteers in WA. This initiative encourages players, parents, and supporters to acknowledge those who give their time to strengthen our clubs and communities.
We invite everyone connected to our club to take part in this important volunteer recognition program. By thanking a volunteer, you not only show appreciation but also help promote the culture of support that keeps cricket strong across Western Australia. Please fill out the form below and submit it.
