The big news just keeps coming for our junior Comets, and this latest milestone is an incredibly special one for the whole Everton family. A massive congratulations goes to U14 star Ben Moore, who has officially been awarded the Brisbane North Junior Cricket Association (BNJCA) Championship Player for the Post-Christmas season!

This prestigious regional award is a massive honor, but for anyone who has watched Ben develop his game at the crease over the years, it is just rewards for his outstanding talent and tireless work ethic.

Ben is a true, home grown Everton legend. He started his cricket journey with EDCC way back in the Under 10s, and it has been an absolute privilege for our coaches, volunteers, and supporters to watch him grow both as a cricketer and as a young man. From his very first games in the Everton colours to anchoring the U14s today, his passion for the sport has never wavered.

Ben has consistently been a standout performer for the club, putting in dominant displays with both bat and ball week in and week out. To see him recognised as the top-performing player across the entire Brisbane North association for the half-season is a huge buzz for our close-knit club community.

Awards of this caliber don't happen by accident. Ben's recognition here is a shining example that talent and hard work always win in the end. Ben is the first to arrive at training, the last to leave the nets, and he always plays the game with the utmost respect and great sportsmanship. He serves as an inspiration and a fantastic role model for all our younger Blasters and junior players coming through the ranks.

Ben, the entire EDCC community is incredibly proud of you. Seeing you receive this association award is a special moment for everyone who has cheered you on from the sidelines since the U10s.

Congratulations on an award that belongs squarely to you!
