The HISTORY of the IAN HEALY CUP

The U-12 Development Carnival (Ian Healy Cup) is Conducted by BNJCA  in January of each year. 

The event seems to  have become a significant event on the calendar for a number of associations.  

In 1999 the then BNJCA Director of Coaching, Kenneth Hunt, felt that there should be cricket

available in Brisbane of a higher standard than that played on Saturdays.    He therefore

suggested an annual carnival for players just below the standard of players selected to attend

QJC Championships.

Ian Healy was consulted and approved his name to be used for an U-12 Development Carnival

 to take place annually and for an Ian Healy Cup Perpetual Trophy to be awarded to the winning

team.

Hosting of the Carnival from 1999 has been undertaken by the Albany Creek Cricket Club at their

grounds at Brendale with the Bald Hills-Lawnton Lions Club becoming involved  in 2009 with

provision of a ground and supply of lunches at Canterbury Park, Bald Hills.

In 1999 only Brisbane North teams were involved.   Subsequently BEARS, Metropolitan South West,

Beaudesert, Beenleigh-Logan and Sunshine Coast became involved. BEARS have sent separate

teams from Redlands and Eastern Districts and teams have attended from Gold Coast and Cricket

Far North.
