SIT & Club Development
For the past few years Appleby Cricket has developed a solid relationship with SIT to help strengthen playing numbers with many players from outside the region. We are hoping this relationship can continue…. #STANDUPFORSIT. SIT’s support has been invaluable for the Club to field three competitive senior level teams. We are always on the lookout for new players and fresh talent, with any enquiries most welcome.
