Jennie grew up in a cricket-loving family in Bowral, where Sir Donald Bradman grew up as a young boy and although not playing the game she always had an interest in the sport. However, it was later in life when her own daughter, Bianca started playing U11’s that Jennie really started to get involved in the administration of the sport and helped establish a girls team at her local club Drysdale CC before heading to the Geelong CC in Cricket Victoria’s Premier Cricket Competition to help the Club with its ambition of having their own girls/women’s teams in the Premier Competition.
Within a few short years Jennie, an excellent organiser with a sharp eye for detail and a strategic thinker, joined the Club’s committee, was then appointed Secretary – this soon morphed into a Vice President’s role and prior to the current season was elected President of the Geelong CC!
There have been a few hurdles to jump for the Club along the way but it is clear in the discussion with Jennie that her passion for the sport and the growth of women’s cricket will definitely ensure sustainable success for the Club in the future.
