The Bulls Masters concept was born on a plane flight back from an Australian Cricketers’ Association event when Jimmy Maher and Michael Kasprowicz first discussed the merits of running a not-for-profit organisation to utilise past players to develop and nurture the game of cricket primarily throughout Regional Queensland.
By 2010 the idea had gained steam with Jimmy Maher driving the development of the concept and past players getting on board and helping out.
By late-August 2010 the Bulls Masters had an official launch at the Gabba with former Queensland greats, Jimmy Maher, Greg Chappell, Ian Healy, Matthew Hayden and Carl Rackemann on hand to help promote the organisation.
Jimmy Maher became the Bulls Masters first Managing Director, Ian Healy was the Chairman and the Board comprised of Andy Bichel, Michael Kasprowicz, Martin Kent, Mark Thompson, and John Mullins.

First Tour, Kingaroy
The first ever touring party
With the Bulls Masters organisation established, it was time to get down to business. The first port of call was the South Burnett Region where a number of Queensland Cricket legends (such as Carl Rackemann and Nathan Hauritz) were born.
The first touring party consisted of Allan Langer, Mark Gaskell, Andy Bichel, Carl Rackemann (c), Martin Love, Jimmy Maher, Joe Dawes, Martin Dent, Jeff Thomson, Gavin Fitness, Michael Kasprowicz, Greg Ritchie, Greg Rowell, Geoff Dymock, Mick Polzin and John McLean.
The tour consisted of school clinics, high development sessions, hospital visits and a game against the South Burnett Invitational XI… which the Bulls Masters won!

Country Challenge 2012
The Country Challenge is the Regional Queensland Cricket showpiece event
The Bulls Masters wanted to give Regional Queensland cricketers more motivation to stay in the game and eliminate some of the financial burden that is especially limiting to cricketers from Regional areas who need to travel long distances to play the game.
The Country Challenge was born in 2012. It was a T20 format competition for open age cricketers and it was initially split into a North and South pool. The Bulls Masters bank-rolled the event providing transport, accommodation and playing kits for each of the eight Regional Queensland zones. The Bulls Masters also provided each Regional Zone with a former Queensland cricket legend as a mentor.
The two teams that won each pool would get to play off for the title at the Gabba, which is the spiritual home of cricket in Queensland and a cherished location for all cricketers to play at.
The first ever Bulls Masters Country Challenge final was played between Mackay/Whitsundays Nitros and South East Queensland Stormers with the Stormers claiming the win!

Club95 Launch

As the Bulls Masters legend grew, people from around the state wanted to be a part of the endeavour and help to support Queensland Cricket. Thus, Club 95 was born.
Named in honour of the 1995 Queensland Bulls Sheffield Shield winning side, Club 95 was established and opened exclusively to 95 people and would serve to celebrate that historic victory at the same time every year.
Club 95 has become a much-cherished business network for members and a great social vessel for Queenslanders who love cricket.

The Healy vs Waugh Trophy
The Bulls Masters All-Stars won the inaugural Healy-Waugh Cup
The Bulls Masters teamed up with the New South Wales past player organisation, The Baggy Blues, to deliver a legends’ game stacked full of world-class players. The game took place in Mackay on Friday the 17th of June, 2016 and all proceeds raised from the match was donated to Bravehearts, a national child protection organisation that offers education and counselling services to support children and their families affected by child sexual assault.
The Bulls Masters were captained by Ian Healy and coached by Allan Border and Darren Lehmann. The playing group was made up of a host of former internationals, including Ryan Harris, Andrew Symonds, Joe Burns, Chris Lynn and many more.
Mark Waugh skippered The Baggy Blues, which included legends of the game such as Adam Gilchrist, Brett Lee, Glenn McGrath, Brad Haddin and Pat Cummins to name a few.
The game was a huge success with the Bulls Masters winning in front of a massive crowd at Harrup Park. The 2016 event raised over $250k for Bravehearts.

Youth Cup 2016
Darling Downs Suns win the inaugural Bulls Masters Youth Cup in 2016
Off the success of the Country Challenge, the Bulls Masters identified an opportunity to offer a similar platform for under 16 Country Queensland cricketers to come together for a tournament at an important stage in their development.
The Bulls Masters once again paid the majority of the costs for all the eight regional zones including playing kits, travel and accommodation for the teams to come together for a five-day tournament in which each team would play three T20 and three 50 over games.
Just like the Country Challenge, the Bulls Masters provided a former Queensland cricketer as a mentor for all the zones.
In the first year of the event it was the Darling Downs Suns who were first to get their name on the Cup.
