Cricket Club of Berkeley: A Legacy of Excellence

Established as a pioneering initiative, the Cricket Club of Berkeley stands proud as the first and only cricket club of the college. Over the years, our club has evolved into a hub for cricket enthusiasts, fostering both the spirit of competition and the love for the game. While we indulge in recreational matches that allow members to enjoy the game in a relaxed environment, our competitive edge is undeniable. Last year, our dedication and prowess were evident as we clinched the title at the Nationals and emerged as NationalVhampions. This victory was not just a testament to our skills but also a symbol of our unwavering commitment to the sport. But the club is not just about playing; it's about living and breathing cricket.

We regularly host watch parties, turning major cricketing events into festive occasions for our community. These gatherings are not just for the seasoned fans but also for newcomers, ensuring everyone gets a taste of the thrill that cricket offers. Our mission extends beyond the boundaries of the college. We are passionate about spreading the game and introducing it to diverse groups of people. Through various outreach programs and events, we aim to share the rich history, rules, and nuances of cricket, making it more accessible and relatable to all. Furthermore, we are one of the best cricket clubs at any college, which is evident by our numerous victories in the Regional and National Tournaments, yet we are one of the very few that are not funded by the University. Here is a picture of the team after we won the National Tournament last year:
