Are you an everyday cricketing hero?

At Homestar, we’re all about championing the people that make cricket great.

That includes  you, the amazing Sydney Thunder fans.

To celebrate our 8th year sponsoring Sydney Thunder, we’re on the lookout for an Australian cricketing hero, by asking you to share your own magic home video cricketing moments.

If you’re selected, you’ll be named Homestar’s People’s Champion and win a special VIP experience with the Sydney Thunder team!

Cricket Balls for Community Clubs

Homestar Finance is proud to partner with the Cricket NSW Foundation to assist community cricket clubs by easing the financial burden of purchasing cricket balls. In BBL13 and BBL14, we successfully supported 30 clubs across New South Wales through our donation of various cricket balls.  

For many cricket clubs, the cost of acquiring balls for all levels of play represents one of their most significant expenses each season. With this in mind, for BBL15, we will continue our commitment by donating cricket ball packs to community clubs for every six hit by a Sydney Thunder player during the competition.
