Want to increase your step count and learn to play a new game at the same time? KAUST GCC in partnership with the Cricket SDG will be hosting an indoor cricket tournament on October 20, 21, 27, and 28.
Come along with your team of seven and try your hand at one of the fastest growing games in the world. Be it hitting that taped tennis ball back to the boundary or aiming to send the batsman back to the hut, you will have lots of fun. Just to get a sense of the intensity of this tournament, imagine shrinking a 160 meter field to a 40 meter one. The games will be five-over a side with a minimum of four players needed to start the game.
The tournament will be held on:
Friday October 20: 3:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Saturday October 21: 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Saturday October 28: 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Prior to the tournament, there will be cricket clinics (to be announced shortly) to give beginners a chance to practice before the games begin.
Do you think your GCC Team is ready for the challenge? If so, please send your team details to Ahad Syed by email: ahad.syed@kaust.edu.sa.
