Cricket Victoria has confirmed its Vic Metro and Vic Country squads for its under 19 Male Emerging Players Program.
A total of 61 players will have the chance to impress coaches and selectors with the program and the opening rounds of Premier Cricket taking place in the lead up to the under 19 National Championships later this year.
From next month, players will be put through their paces at the CitiPower Centre by an esteemed coaching group including Sheffield Shield winning coach Greg Shipperd, six-time Shield winner Cameron White and Sri Lankan international Thilan Samaraweera.
A camp, further sessions around the state and trial matches will also provide additional development opportunities for players.
The under 19 National Championships were cancelled last season due to coronavirus but will return in December when Adelaide hosts the tournament.
"We're delighted to offer this development opportunity to what is a very talented group of young players," Cricket Victoria's Manager of the Male Emerging Players Program Tom Evans said.
"After missing out on the National Championships last season, the return of the tournament will provide added incentive for the players and we look forward to selecting strong Vic Metro and Vic Country squads to represent our state in Adelaide."
