Ocean Grove Connected Communities and Bendigo Bank teamed up to give Ocean Grove Cricket Club a cheque for $5700.
Ocean Grove Cricket Club president Peter Hart said some of the money will be used to expand the club’s junior competition, in particular its girls teams.
Hart said the club was appreciative of the help that Ocean Grove Connected Communities and Bendigo Bank offered the community.
On hand to present the cheque was Bendigo Bank Ocean Grove branch manager David Ellis and Helen Butteriss and John Mamonski from Ocean Grove Connected Communities.
Cricket club vice-president Adam Spiby and Jeannette Roche and Dana Richardson were also on hand to receive the cheque.
The cheque was presented as Ocean Grove senior cricketers were giving the girls team some tips and training for the coming season.
