Cricket at the football world cup
« on: January 24, 2006, 03:39:08 AM »
We are a group of England football supporters looking to organise a cricket match in Nuremburg prior to the football match between the 2 countries to show Germany and the rest of Europe what they are missing.

What we are looking for is a group of T&T supporters who will be in Germany for the World Cup and who would be willing to spend an afternoon playing an informal game of cricket , have a drink in a carnival / party atmosphere.

If anyone is interested can you please contact me so we can try to organise something or can you pass onto someone who you think could / would help.

Regards

We don't intend anyone to get hurt , so I doubt we will be playing with a real cricket ball.

If you think you can get a team of Socawarrior Cricketwarriors together off this site or even a group of your mates ...I have had some interest already from someone else so maybe between the lot of us we can arrange a festival of cricket

Adrian, the response means tennis ball cricket or cork ball?  Most West Indians tend to play tennis ball cricket informally much more often than the hard ball which is quite expensive and hard to organise without the proper equipment and venue.

Thank you - I think I got the gist of it.

I expect we will be playing with a tennis ball or soft ball  because I hope there will be a "bit" of drinking taking place and no-one wants to get hurt playing for their country !! and I can't see the Germans preparing a wicket for us

If we can arrange something it will only be informal and a bit of fun
