BHCC's Winter Academy is a high performance cricket academy for young female cricketers that aspire to play Premier Cricket. It is designed to enhance players' cricket skills, game awareness and love of the game. 

The 25/26 Academy took place between 14th June - 26th July 2025 at Topline Cricket. 

We are proud to announce that Bendigo Bank Blackburn South is our community partner and sponsor for the 2025 academy. We thank them for the support that their grant brings us and the additional opportunities available to cricketers as a result. 

At the completion of the Winter Academy squad sessions, our coaches selected an U15 Marg Jennings squad (see below) some U18 Players will be invited to join Senior preseason training.
