AGSV First XI Cricket Ground & Pitch Awards
Celebrating First Place Ranking for the AGSV Ground and Pitch Awards 2025-2026!
The Trinity Marles Playing Fields, tended by our incredible Bulleen grounds staff, earned perfect scores in three out of four rounds of the AGSV summer sport season, to be recognised as the leading First XI cricket ground and pitch across the AGSV schools.
Congratulations to Peninsula Grammar on 2nd place and Mentone Grammar on 3rd place.
We have also taken out the individual prize for the Pitch award, along with a three-way tie between Peninsula Grammar, PEGS and Ivanhoe Grammar for the Outfield award, with each school scoring perfect results across all four rounds.
For the team at Bulleen, winning this award is a massive honour. To be recognised by the AGSV to have the best cricket pitch and fields is something we all take a lot of pride in.

Assessments were made with the consideration of 14 questions, split into an equal 1-point factor, going towards the total, meaning no one factor had more weight than any other for the total score of 14.
Congratulations to our Bulleen team, Brandon, Tristan and the grounds staff, on behalf of Trinity and all of the schools who compete at our Marles Playing Fields for the time, expertise and craft to make the grounds match-ready every round.
We also extend our appreciation to the umpiring panel for their involvement in ranking the various categories after each match.
