About Us

The Bayside Cricket Club was formed in 2017 following the merger of the Highett Cricket Club and Moorabbin Park Cricket Club. While we continue to honour the past, we're forging ahead with creating our new Bayside identity. Our 1st XI won their innaugral premiership in 2023/24, and we look forward to many more successful seasons to come.

We currently host 5 senior teams across both Saturday's and Sunday's in the Cricket Southern Bayside Competition, and numerous junior teams in both synthetic and turf competitions.
