Meet the Team: Aundria Mirabrishami – Passionate All-Rounder and Leader at Aspire Cricket
Last, but certainly not least, in Aspire Cricket's Meet the Team series is Aundria (Auni) Mirabrishami!
Auni is a budding all rounder and cricket fanatic who is the perfect example of how the sport can capture the hearts and imaginations of girls and women in the USA. In a relatively short amount of time, Auni has not only become a competitive bowler and batter, but also an ICC Certified Level 1 Coach.
She is passionate about introducing the sport she loves to as many new people as possible in as many new communities as possible - something she is really good at!
Auni brings great ideas, that can-do spirit and endless enthusiasm to the Aspire Cricket Team! We are over the moon to have her with us.
Check out Aundria’s bio, below:
Sports have always been an important part of Aundria's life. She grew up playing basketball, golf, softball, soccer, and outrigger canoeing, but didn’t pick up a cricket bat until January of 2022. Growing up in a Mexican-Iranian household, cricket was relatively unknown to her outside of her friends and Bollywood movies. On a whim, Aundria decided to check out the nets one evening after work. The rest is history.
Aundria fell in love with the sport and began pouring all of her time and energy into learning everything she could about it. She hired a coach and, being a lifelong athlete, was able to make rapid progress in bowling and batting. By the summer of 2022, she found herself making quite the splash on the US cricket scene by competing with some of the best cricketers in the nation!
At her core, Aundria is a relationship builder and change maker. She recognizes that girls and women enjoy limited opportunities in sport, with cricket being no exception. Being full of gratitude for what cricket has given her, Aundria is inspired and driven to change that. She is passionate about creating new opportunities for girls and women to experience the sport of cricket and fall in love with it too.
