Cricket at The British Club

The British Club’s cricket section is home to The BC XI, a social team that plays friendly fixtures against other clubs across Singapore and Johor Bahru. We're also a touring side, enjoying the variety of cricket and culture across the region.

Local matches are usually played on Saturday afternoons, followed by the traditional post-match drinks—either at the ground or back at the Club’s sports bar, SCORES. Regular evening nets keep players match-ready, while social events at the Club keep the camaraderie alive. 

We welcome British Club members, guests, visiting players, and overseas touring teams to get in touch.
