Merv's Have A Crack Day

Since long before Bradman was a boy, men have been happier pondering cover drives and outside edges than thinking about their own health. Times, thankfully, have changed. We still love cricket, and we now recognize that our bodies are susceptible to the occasional bouncer. Now, one of Australia’s most legendary fast bowlers is calling you to action.

Merv’s Have A Crack Day brings you the chance to celebrate your love of cricket in an atmosphere to be treasured, while contributing to a cause that is committed to assisting, educating and informing the entire community on the many disorders that afflict the male reproductive system and their associated conditions.

Be out in the middle alongside Merv Hughes and a host of sporting and entertainment identities as 24 teams compete in Merv's own Ten10 format, in a carnival-style afternoon of cricketing fun in the beautiful setting of Trinity Grammar's Sporting Fields in Bulleen. Every team will boast a legend, but winning won’t be the order of the day. Men’s health is a serious business, but this is all about Having A Crack. An unforgettable afternoon filled with music, entertainment and colour, when it’s all about taking part - no matter what your ability with bat or ball.

Merv Hughes is the ambassador of Andrology Australia, a government initiative administered by Monash University which aims to improve and promote men’s health, from testicular and prostate cancer, to male infertility and a range of many various reproductive health issues.

This is a unique opportunity to be there at the dawn of a day that will become a coveted fixture on Melbourne’s event calendar. Get your team together now, and be part of something that won’t just be special, it will make a difference for every bloke who’s rolled the arm over, strapped on the pads or triumphed in the backyard.
