Cricket season always brings something special to Canberra, and we’ve loved being part of it with the ANU Cricket Club (ANUCC) 🏏☀️

Since partnering from the 24/25 season, it’s been a genuine privilege to support such a passionate club - from preseason prep through to the big moments. Seeing the hard work has been something we’re incredibly proud to witness 🏆

Here's just a few highlights:
• 2024/2025 1st Grade One Day Champions
• Fortis’ own Scott Gordon presenting the silverware at the 24/25 Presentation Night
• 2nd Grade's Round 1 action against Eastlake - and yes, you might spot the Fortis logo on the ANUCC playing shirt 👀

At Fortis Physio, supporting local sport isn’t just about injury management - it’s about investing in club culture, performance, and the people who make it all happen.

A big thank you to ANUCC for welcoming us into your journey. We’re excited for what’s ahead.
