Beau recorded an impressive 103 off 71 balls in Nulla's victory over South West Rocks in round four before the 13-year-old backed it up with 133 not out from 95 balls in Nulla's win over Rovers in round seven.
Rounds five and six of the Macleay Valley Cricket Association were cancelled due to poor air quality.
Beau smashed seven sixes and 15 fours on his way to notching the 133 score. Prior to his latest centuries, Beau's top score was 81 in the interdistrct grand final last season.
The Mid North Coast representative player, who also competed at the NSW Youth Championships earlier this year, scored more than 1000 runs in his first year as a senior last year.
Beau is well on his way to surpassing last season's total as he has accumulated 633 runs in four innings this year.
Beau, who trains almost every day in the nets, will compete at the Kookaburra Cup carnival in Albury-Wodonga in January.
Beau started in Milo cricket with the Nulla Club as a five year old.
Beau's mother Belinda said her son has benefited from terrific local coaches over the years.
"Steve Tarbox, Sam Preston (Nulla Junior and Seniors), Kris Gill, Pat O'Loughlin, Mark Smee (Nulla Seniors), Danny Powick (MVCA Rep), Ben Paix (MVCA Rep and Mid North Coast Rep) and of course Troy McKiernan, who continues to work alongside representative coaches to nurture young cricketers in Northern NSW by providing higher level representative honour opportunities have helped him refine his skills," Belinda said.
