CERN CRICKET CLUB

 

The CERN Cricket Club 2014 season has been a good one so far with the team qualifying for the Swiss Cup semi-finals, with home advantage on the Prevessin ground on Sunday, August 24th. Their opponents will only be known the day before when the final game in the Eastern Division is played. 

The CERN ground hasn’t quite recovered from the Bosons&More party last year, the wet weather making it impossible to roll the ground, but the new, wider strip is a big improvement.

Net practice eventually started in late July, which is probably why the results at the beginning of the season weren’t so good.

As match reports are too long to be included in the weekly bulletin, the full reports and the schedule can be found under “Matches (Fixtures, results, reports)” on the Cricket Club web site at

Anyone interested in playing cricket is welcome to join us at net practice, which takes place on the Prevessin site each Thursday evening, until late September, from 18:00 to around 19:30 (weather permitting).
