Toombul District Cricket Club boasts a proud and storied history in the Brisbane Premier Grade competition, competing across all six senior men’s grades—from 6th grade through to 1st grade. With a long-standing tradition of excellence, Toombul is widely recognised as one of Queensland’s most respected and development-focused cricket clubs.
The club has played a key role in shaping the careers of some of Australia’s finest cricketers, producing 12 Australian Test representatives and over 50 Queensland Bulls players. This legacy of success reflects Toombul’s unwavering commitment to nurturing talent and providing clear development pathways for aspiring players.
In addition to senior grade cricket, Toombul also competes in elite youth competitions, including the Brisbane Metropolitan Competition (BMC) Divisions 1 and 2, and the prestigious Lord Taverners Under 17 competition. These programs form a crucial part of the club’s development structure, bridging the gap between junior and senior cricket.
Senior men’s training is held every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 5:30pm at the club’s home ground, Oxenham Park. With a strong coaching team and a whole-club training model, Toombul provides a professional and supportive environment for cricketers to grow, compete, and succeed at every level.
