Aarna Parwal - Penrith Cricket Club Women's Rookie of the Year, 2025-26
I started playing cricket in 2020 with the Baulkham Hills Cricket Club in Stage 2 competitions. As I was younger at the time and needed to play in a team more suitable for my age group, I then moved to Kellyville Cricket Club to play Stage 1 cricket. I played for Kellyville Supersonics for four years, and in 2022, I began playing representative cricket for Hornsby Ku-ring-gai District Cricket Club. During my time in representative cricket, I progressed from Mollie Dive through to Margaret Peden for Hornsby. During my last year of representative cricket, I moved to premier cricket and was fortunate enough to represent Penrith Cricket Club in Brewer Shield.
