What makes a Cooper
Made in Brisbane
Every bat is built start to finish in our Northgate workshop. Nothing is outsourced.
Graded by hand
Players Grade and Grade 1, 2 and 3 English willow, chosen and shaped for you.
Backed for the long game
Repairs, knock-ins and honest advice. We are here long after the sale.
It starts with the willow.
There is nothing quite like the grain of good English willow. We make every Cooper in Brisbane by hand, refined with technology, so the bat you pick up is consistent and true, every time. A bat you trust is a bat that lets you play your own game. Our heart is in it for the player.
Whatever your level, there is a Cooper for it
Build your bat. Or let me help you choose.
I am Rod, the founder of Cooper Cricket. If you know what you want, jump into the Custom Bat Builder and design it from scratch. Not sure where to start? Answer a few quick questions and I will point you at the right bat for how you play.
Every bat has a season left in it.
We repair, restore and re-balance cricket bats of every brand. Fixed quotes from photos, and a 10 day guarantee: if we do not have it back to you in ten days, the standard repair is free.
Cricket is life.
The flashy stuff with the pros is great. But really it is about the kid who walks a little taller on Monday because of what they did on Saturday. A great bat makes everything better. That is what we are here for.
From our workshop to the world stage.
Plenty of you knew Josh Brown when he was here making bats with us. He built his own, walked out at the Gabba on New Year's Day and lit it up. He plays around the world now, but he is still one of ours.

How our Custom Bat Builder works
Our Custom Bat Builder is an online tool that lets you design a cricket bat from the ground up. Then we bring it to life in our Brisbane workshop.
It's that simple.
Ten models, five willow grades, and every detail in between, chosen by you. It takes about five minutes to design your bat, place your order and secure a spot in our workshop queue.
A cracked toe or a snapped handle can feel like the end of a bat, but often it's not. Every day we are bringing cricket bats back to life, and players are heading back to the crease with confidence.
