About
A New Era in Cricket
Tam & Pete Wrigley
Moreton Magic is more than just a cricket team—it’s a vision brought to life by Tam Wrigley, a renowned TV personality, and her husband, Peter, both lifelong cricket enthusiasts. Their passion for the sport has led them to take a bold step into the world of professional cricket ownership, securing a franchise in the prestigious Century Cricket Competition.
“We’ve always dreamed of giving back to the sport we love,” says Tam. “Owning a franchise allows us to build a team that not only excels on the field but also uplifts the community and inspires the next generation of players.”
Their journey began on the sidelines of local junior cricket games, where they realised they wanted to do more than just watch—they wanted to actively shape the future of the sport. That dream became reality with the formation of Moreton Magic, a team built on the principles of excellence, inclusivity, and sportsmanship.
“Imagine a team that embodies everything we love about cricket,” adds Peter. “A team that doesn’t just play great cricket, but serves as a positive force in the community.”
The Wrigley’s tackled the challenge of franchise ownership with the same energy and passion that fuels their love for the game. From strategic negotiations to assembling a talented squad, they have meticulously crafted a team that feels like family—a unit that celebrates diversity, resilience, and the magic of cricket.
In their inaugural season, the Moreton Magic has already made waves. While every new team faces challenges, their unbreakable spirit and determination have won the hearts of fans and competitors alike. With Tam and Peter cheering from the sidelines at every match, their hands-on leadership has become a driving force behind the team’s success.
“Tam and Peter’s commitment to Moreton Magic is extraordinary,” says the team’s coach. “They’ve created an environment where players feel valued, motivated, and empowered to perform at their best.”
From devoted fans to franchise owners, the Wrigleys have transformed their passion into something truly special. Moreton Magic isn’t just here to compete—it’s here to inspire. A team built on heart, ambition, and the love of the game, it represents what cricket is truly about: unity, excellence, and the spirit of sport./
Head of Junior Coaching
Cricket has been a huge part of my life, but coaching has brought me more joy than playing ever did. My journey took a meaningful turn with my son, Bailey—I got qualified to support his passion and discovered my own in coaching.
My philosophy is simple: care for the person first, player second. The Magic family has given me the freedom to build a team based on “character over skill; good people make good cricketers.”
Winning BPL 01 with the U13s was unforgettable, but watching players grow is the real reward. I’m proud to be part of this franchise and excited for what’s ahead.
