The Primary Club of Australia Inc
The Primary Club of Australia Inc is an Australian nonprofit organization and registered charity founded in 1974. It is a cricket-based charity primarily dedicated to promoting participation in sport and recreation by people with disabilities across Australia.
Mission and Activities
The Primary Club encourages support through a unique fundraising mechanism linked to cricket: each time an Australian cricketer is dismissed with a "golden duck" (a first-ball out, also known as a "primary"), members contribute a $10 tax-deductible donation to the charity. These funds are then distributed to support and develop sporting and recreational opportunities for individuals living with physical or intellectual disabilities. The charity partners with a variety of local and national organizations to provide facilities, equipment, and programs that enable access to sport and recreation for disabled Australians.
Impact
Since its inception, the Primary Club of Australia has raised over seven million dollars for disability-related sporting projects. It has funded more than 600 projects and provided over 16,000 individuals with opportunities to engage in sporting activities, thereby enhancing their quality of life and social inclusion. The work of the club has positively affected thousands of families and communities by fostering inclusion and access through sport.
Signature Event: Marathon Cricket
The club hosts an annual event known as Marathon Cricket at the Sydney Cricket Ground, which is a sporting and community highlight. This event features cricket matches with various unique teams, including indigenous Australian sides, multicultural teams, and special guest players from other sports such as AFL. A key feature is the playing of the "Jack Marsh Cup," named after a famous Australian Aboriginal cricketer. Marathon Cricket serves both as a celebration of cricket and a fundraiser to support the club’s mission.
Community and Disability Context
In Australia, approximately 4.4 million people, or nearly 18% of the population, live with some form of intellectual or physical disability. The Primary Club of Australia aims to make sport and recreation accessible to this significant portion of the community, promoting inclusivity and physical well-being.
The Primary Club of Australia remains an active and well-regarded charity within the Australian sporting and disability sectors, with a strong reputation for leveraging cricket fandom into meaningful social impact.
