Strong PSA Presence in the BBL|15 Season
For more than a decade, the Big Bash League has provided a national stage for emerging and established Australian cricketers, and each season the imprint of the Public Schools Association (PSA) becomes increasingly visible. The 2025/26 season is no exception. With fourteen PSA alumni earning places in BBL|15 squads, the competition once again highlights the strength, consistency and influence of PSA cricket across the country.
The Big Bash’s distinct PSA roots
On the eve of the BBL 13 Final, contested between the Sydney Sixers and the Brisbane Heat, we reflect on how much the alumni of PSA schools have influenced the competition over the past two seasons. Undeniably, there is a distinct PSA flavour with no less than 16 PSA Alumni featuring in BBL13, and over the years many more old boys have gone on to achieve personal and team success in the BBL.
Cricket – a rich PSA vein
The PSA in Western Australia continues to produce a rich vein of first-class cricketers in all forms of the modern game.
