Ballarat's Jeremey Byrne is the Cricket Australia community cricket coach of the year.

 

His outstanding coaching contributions to the Ballarat women's and Buninyong clubs, and Ballarat Cricket Association led to the accolade.

BCA operations and female cricket coordinator Greg Wakeling said Byrne had been a prominent figure in Ballarat's cricketing community in holding three different coaching roles across junior and women's teams, as well as various other volunteer roles in the game.
