WOOLGOOLGA Rebels Cricket Club has welcomed international cricketer Mussa Chaudhry from England’s Eckington Cricket Club in Derbyshire for the 2025/26 season.
Chaudhry, renowned in England’s club cricket for his strong batting skills, technical ability, and unwavering commitment to cricket, brings talent and enthusiasm to the club.
His move to Australia provides him with the chance to test his skills in local conditions while sharing his knowledge with Woolgoolga players across all grades.
His signing marks a milestone for the club, providing local players with the opportunity to train and play alongside a proven international cricketer.
“Having Mussa with us is not only exciting for our senior squads, but also for our younger players who will benefit from his skills and knowledge,” said Club Coach and Committee Member Lindsay Mamone.
In addition to strengthening the senior playing group, the Rebels are also investing in the future of cricket with the launch of a new Under-10s Wednesday afternoon competition.
The program begins 15 October, running for eight weeks at Centennial Oval, and is open to boys and girls aged 6–10.
“Using soft Cricket Blast equipment, the competition provides a fun, safe, and social way for children to learn and fall in love with cricket,” Mr Mamone said.
The Woolgoolga Rebels Cricket Club prides itself on being more than just a cricket club.
“It’s a family-friendly community with opportunities for first-time players, juniors, and seniors alike”.
New players and families are warmly encouraged to get involved this season.
