The 2021 GV Harmony Cup, hosted by Shepparton United and Youth Cricket Club, is for people in the Goulburn Valley with any type of disability, of any age or gender and will be held at Princess Park, Shepparton on Wednesday, February 23 starting at 9.30am.
What started out six years ago as a friendly match between two teams from Shepparton disability services and support organisation, Connect GV, has grown to a region-wide carnival of cricket.
Tony Giblin, vice-president of the Shepparton United and Youth Cricket Club, hosts of the day, said at last count there were seven teams of 10 descending on Princess Park for the day, and hopefully more could be enticed to have a hit.
The round-robin format of matches features 10-overs per side games with modified rules. There will be guest appearances from international cricketers Sarah Elliott and Ray Bright.
A barbeque will be put on by the Shepparton South Rotary Club and the Melbourne Renegades T20 franchise cricket team promotional van will also be in town.
To participate in the event as a team or individual please contact Tony Giblin from Shepparton United and Youth Cricket Club on 0407 246 778.
