Do U Guys Play Cricket for a Team or Just for Fun?

i play softball cricket down here in miami..... for a team call BnD

 

I play down here in New York for Williamsburg and Superchargers in the WISA and NYCA leagues respectively. I play mostly for fun and competition but mainly because I like the game.

 

I play windball cricket for fun....and competition with some teams in qnz during the summer.

 

I play for Williamsburg and also for my school Martin Van Buren...The competition can get pretty tough sometimes but I like to play just for fun.

 

i play hardball for george brown college toronto..n im also part of the toronto cricket academy..the team usually go to australia/u.s/west indies/england every year but i cant go wid dem cuz i need to get a pardon..

 

I play cricket but american based west indians suck in cricket they only know
to play soft ball ***** boy game i play hard ball -- tennis ball and tape - tape up and power out !!

 

Sadly thats true there aren't many if any world class players in the US capable of playing hardball internationally and its proven by the recent failure in the Under-19 World Cup and previous international senior tournaments. Hardball is however supposedly on the rise in the U.S. especially with all the big names coming here to play.

Now softball is a game which most Americans, New Yorkers and people from Florida in particular are very talented at. There are some big names with this form cricket over here such as Dharampaul Singh, Bobby Pahalad and the list continues. However it is the least popular form of the game. The sport is growing and there's always room for improvement and new innovations in the future.

 

Recently a new "league" was enlisted in the NYC schools, they were not allowed to have cricket as an official sport-
in Clinton High School in the Bronx, a cricket team was created, and we went on to be bronx divisional champions, but lost in the Semi-finals against a Queens team of Indians lol.

So, yea, Play Cricket for both, for fun and a league

 

Yeah thats the PSAL league and there's a website and everything for that league. Its basically a school league and last year was the second year it was held. The champions of last year was Newcomers High School beating John Adams in the final.

I'm guessing you go to Dewitt Clinton HS and lost to Richmond Hill HS?

 

I hear you i recognize also that the softball cricket
is rising in the us...And also there are alot of talented youngsters than take the game to
another level apart from that.. I am very talented in hard ball cricket grew up playing tape ball
cricket so i guess i kinda dislike the softball because like theres no sport in it for me
also its really hard to find people in america that plays Tape ball/hardball cricket ppl are
just scared of the ball lolllll!! i know this from experience !! lolllll:bash:

 

lovely game , play it just for fun
