The University of Canberra and Cricket ACT have joined forces to deliver in-school cricket programs across Australia and India, creating new opportunities for aspiring young players on and off the field.
At the heart of the partnership is the flagship UC T-10 Cricket Challenge, a four-day carnival backed by year-round training camps and coaching sessions.
Now in its second edition, the international school tournament has quickly gained momentum, giving emerging players a chance to experience global competition while exploring study pathways at the University of Canberra.
This year’s Challenge drew 25 teams from 14 schools in India, with St Joseph’s Boys School, Bengaluru, and Vibgyor High School, Bengaluru, crowned champions.
With growing industry support and the presence of Australian Government representatives, including Acting Consul-General Steven Connolly and Austrade’s Dr Monica Kennedy, the tournament is being recognised as a first-of-its-kind initiative showcasing innovative leadership in sport and education.
