Pink Stumps & Ladies Day: You Understood The Assignment

What do you get when you mix pink outfits, afternoon tea, cricket whites, early-2000s bangers and a community that shows up in full main-character energy?

A Pink Stumps & Ladies Day that absolutely understood the assignment.

This year’s event was nothing short of iconic. The vibes were immaculate, the pink was aggressively fabulous, and the support for the McGrath Foundation was next level.

Let’s talk numbers (because we love receipts):

💗 $6,233 raised for The McGrath Foundation - now supporting ALL cancers

💗 25 virtual seats sold from legends who couldn’t attend but still wanted to be part of the magic

That’s not just a good day at the club - that’s our Heathmont Cricket community stepping up in a big way.

From the moment our ladies arrived the whole day felt like a love letter to friendship, fun and fundraising, and we are always so pleased when our community continues to bring it when we host our annual Pink Stumps Day.

The pink outfits? Elite.

The laughs? Non-stop.

The generosity? Unreal.

And let’s not forget the on-field entertainment.

Pink Stumps Day marked Day 1 of a two-day game, and our senior 2nd XI put on a show with the bat and ball. They rose to the occasion, delivering a an incredible first day in a close match, but the real fairytale finish came on Day 2, when they sealed the deal with a dominant 9-wicket win.

Nothing says “we understood the brief” quite like backing up a huge fundraising day with a statement victory.
