A Proud Milestone for Elite Cricket Academy and the South East Cricket Community

We are incredibly proud and honoured to announce that the Mid Year Cricket Association (MYCA) has officially named the South East Premier Division as the Elite Cricket Academy Pakenham Division for the Winter 2026 season.

This recognition is a significant milestone for our academy and reflects the continued growth of cricket in Melbourne’s South East corridor. It is also a testament to the incredible support from players, parents, coaches, clubs, volunteers, and the wider cricket community who have been part of our journey.

From our beginnings in Melbourne West to expanding into the South East through our new Pakenham indoor facility, Elite Cricket Academy has always been committed to creating genuine pathways for cricketers to grow, compete, and pursue higher levels of the game.

To now have a premier division associated with the Elite Cricket Academy name is both humbling and inspiring.

Thank You to MYCA

We would like to sincerely thank the Mid Year Cricket Association for this recognition and for their ongoing contribution to community cricket.

MYCA continues to provide outstanding opportunities for clubs and players through structured competitions, strong administration, and a commitment to developing the game at all levels.

We are excited to work alongside MYCA as we continue building high-quality cricket experiences for players across Victoria.

Wishing All Teams an Outstanding Season

We would also like to wish all participating teams the very best for the Winter 2026 season:

Building the Pathway Forward

At Elite Cricket Academy, our mission has always been bigger than coaching sessions and competitions. We are focused on creating a true Pathway to Premier Cricket by connecting players with structured development programs, premier-level coaching, competitive opportunities, and professional environments.

The launch of our Pakenham centre represents another major step in bringing elite cricket opportunities to Melbourne’s South East.

Together with MYCA and the wider cricket community, we are excited for what lies ahead.
