The Great Boulder Cricket Club is a member of the Eastern
Goldfields Cricket Association based in Kalgoorlie-Boulder
Western Australia and was established in 1954. The club has
two Senior teams (A and B grade) that play in a strong turf
competition and multiple Junior teams for both boys and girls
from ages 10 to 17.
In a new initiative the club has also entered a third senior
team into the Kalgoorlie Boulder Cricket Association for season
2022-23.
The club prides itself on field and enjoy the festivities and
fellowship with a vibrant social scene off field.
The GBCC had a very successful 2021/22 campaign
winning Premierships with comprehensive victories in both the B
Grade senior men’s as well as the Under 17’with both teams going
back to back Premiers. The club under the youthful combination
of coach Dylan Hinchliffe and skipper Josh Rushmore had a
dominant home and away A Grade season but were unfortunately
beaten in the Grand Final decider.
