The Booralee Big Bash on Sunday 19 January brings 14 local sporting clubs together for a charity cricket match at Booralee Park to support the Gotcha4Life Foundation’s youth suicide prevention program.

Other family activities on the day will include a sausage sizzle, monster raffle and a jumping castle. Gotcha4Life members will also be on hand to chat to anyone wanting to reach out.

This event supported by Bayside Council is now in its third year, brings local cricket, rugby league, AFL and soccer teams together for a charity cricket match.

Last year the event raised $6,740 for Gotcha4Life’s mental fitness projects and programs aimed at preventing youth suicide.
