The 12-year-old scored an average of 155 runs, at an average of 77.50, for Moree throughout the Central North competition, earning him the batting average award at the end of the season.
He was also the first player to score a century in the under 13s division, hitting 105 not out during a match in Moree against Inverell in November.
"He was pretty happy with that," dad Jason Rogers said.
Harry said it was a great feeling walking off the field that day.
"I walked off with my teammates, they formed an archway for me," he said.
Although Harry prefers bowling, he said it's a good feeling when he hits a good ball.
"When you hit the ball in the middle of your bat and it comes off good, you get that sensation," he said.
Harry has been playing cricket since he was in kindergarten and said his favourite part about it is that you "get to talk with your mates on the weekend".
Moree Junior Cricket Club president Brad Beddoes congratulated Harry on his achievement.
