After moving back to Goulburn in 2021, Roxburgh set about establishing the new MBK United Cricket Club, which he did with the intent of developing some of the ample junior talent in the region.

More than six months after the club was first announced, Roxburgh confirmed in an email to Southern Highland News that it would field two teams: one in First Grade and one in the Under 14s division.

What was particularly pleasing for Roxburgh was the influx of players new to the game in the junior team.

"This wonderful little side also has three young ladies in it who will be playing in their first year of cricket," Roxburgh said.

"We also have another six young men who have never played before. When we started on this venture, I just wanted to give promising young cricketers somewhere to play full-time First Grade cricket. This junior side has now started the rebuild of Goulburn junior cricket with nine kids who have never played the game before.

"It is a wonderful start to what I see being a huge future for MBK United cricket club."

Roxburgh's goal for the club is twofold. His primary objective is to help develop young cricketers into capable senior players, and in doing so, he also hopes to reinvigorate Goulburn's senior competitions.

"I have constructed a side that I feel will help our juniors and help our promising young cricketers around the district progress into better players," he said.

"But I also want to show them that our little district is worth hanging around where they can play some quality cricket and have some fun along the way."

Although Roxburgh has committed himself to a future in Goulburn cricket, he remains involved in the Southern Highlands through his coaching role with the Hill Top Northern Villages Cricket Club, which was announced earlier this year.
