Lower Mainland T-20 League
|
Just when the BCMCL members thought that the cricket is over, Lower Mainland T-20 League will kick start its second half for the entire September.
The league had a dream start when we had none other that Arjuna Ranatunga inaugurate the T-20 league in April.
We all saw some very exciting games in the first half of the league. We will surely see even better and bigger T-20 games in the second half. The schedule for the league will be on the internet shortly.
What a way to end the season when we will witness the T-20 finals on September 28, 2008 at the Upper Brockton.
Time to bring out the colored clothing that the league provided to each team member and smack that shining white ball out of the park.

BCMCL Premier Division Champs - Pakcan
|
BCMCL had its Premier Division Play-off finals on Sunday, August 31, 2008 at Upper Brockton between Pakcan and Abbotsford.
The new boys Abbotsford had a fairytale season with reaching the finals of the play-offs in their first season at the top level. It was a good final that saw both teams fight it out but Pakcan led by Baber Javed came on top and won the final with their experience and Baber's captaincy.
Good Luck to Pakcan to be the BC Champions.

BCMCL Weekday Twenty-20 Semi Finals

The first semi final between the Surrey Juniors led by Dilpreet Dhillon and All Stars XI led by Param Kaler was a great outing for all players and spectators. All Stars XI were clear favourites with names like Jimmy Hansra, Jawad Dawood, Hussain Dawood, Imran Khan in their team. This team was true to its name where it had all the stars of cricketers in lower mainland.
But the Surrey Juniors had other plans in mind with the experience of the BCMCL president Vimal Hardat, only senior member in the team, Juniors beat Stars XI convincingly by 3 wickets.
The second semi final was played between White Rock Hawks and Delta Cougars. Another great encounter that saw Hawks beat Cougars in an exciting match.

Junior Six-A-Side
|
|
BCMCL held its historical Junior six-a-side with weather not in cricket's favor. Despite of the rain it did not stop our talented juniors from having a great tournament at the Stanley Park. We saw some great display of hard hitting and sensible bowling from the BCMCL juniors. We would like to thank Salim Mohammad and Hardeep Ghuman for organizing the event with such success. Special thanks to Jim Richards and Mumtaz Khan for their involvement in scoring and umpiring.
Abbotsford Juniors were the Champions and West Vancouver Juniors were the runners up. Sunny Gainder was the best batsman and Satnam Randhawa had the highest number of sixes.

Use Of Parks
|
The Parks Board is committed to providing the cricketers of Lower Mainland with quality park and recreational opportunities in a safe, healthy and enjoyable environment. To fulfill this commitment they have instilled a lot of faith in the British Columbia Mainland Cricket League who have further given this ground to its responsible members. The Code simply requires that members of the BCMCL must conduct themselves in a rational and reasonable manner, in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the Park Board of each municipality. We play cricket that is quite rightly called a gentleman's game and we should be very careful in maintaining the trust that the Parks board of different municipality has kept with the BCMCL for almost 100 years.
Here is the link to parks policy in details.
