What is Master Blasters?

Master Blasters is for kids who have mastered the basics and are ready to play modified cricket matches. The emphasis is on fun and having a go - every child gets the same opportunity to bat, bowl and field, with the "umpires" providing in-game on-field coaching. It's 90 minutes of fun!

We bring the cricket to you!

If you're waiting for Cricket Blast to start / restart, you can still learn new skills with Anywhere Cricket Blast. It's a FREE program that has been designed to keep kids engaged and involved in cricket during these challenging COVID times. We want to provide flexible options for kids to participate in a simple “at-home” cricket experience. 


The program offers:

  • A flexible program that can be participated from anywhere and with little to no cricket equipment. 
  • 6 x 20min pre-recorded interactive skill sessions, covering catching, batting and bowling.
  • Weekly challenges 
  • Blasters can participate on their own along with the video content, or with a parent/guardian’s assistance

We remember what it was like to be new to cricket, and will help you make the best decision for your child.
