America’s Report This past month saw Cricket Canada hold its second annual National Cricket League (NCL) from the Maple Leaf Cricket Club in King City Ontario. As promised, this year proved to be a bigger and better event than 2012’s inaugural competition, highlighted by matches being televised live on national Canadian TV. CricHQ was pleased to be the official technology partner. Our competition management solution for the administrators, CricHQ App for scorers, and live scores, competition tables and MVP calculations on our website all proved to be a real hit, taking the NCL to the next level. Five regional teams comprised of the best talent Canada has to offer competed over eight days in a double round-robin 50 over competition, followed by three days of T20 action. After the 50 over format was completed, only net-run-rate separated the Western Stallions from the Central Shield, with the Stallions repeating their 50 over success from last year. Following some fast and furious round-robin action, the tournament culminated with the same two teams in the T20 final on a bright and warm Canada Day afternoon. “Moments after the winning runout in the T20 final” “Hiral Patel receives his MVP award from Gus Logie” The Western Stallions elected to bat, and scored 127 in the allotted 20 overs.

  • Cricket As a Diasporic Resource for Caribbean-Canadians by Janelle Beatrice Joseph a Thesis Submitted in Conformity with the Re
    Cricket as a Diasporic Resource for Caribbean-Canadians by Janelle Beatrice Joseph A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto © Janelle Beatrice Joseph 2010 Cricket as a Diasporic Resource for Caribbean-Canadians Janelle Beatrice Joseph Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto 2010 Abstract The diasporic resources and transnational flows of the Black diaspora have increasingly been of concern to scholars. However, the making of the Black diaspora in Canada has often been overlooked, and the use of sport to connect migrants to the homeland has been virtually ignored. This study uses African, Black and Caribbean diaspora lenses to examine the ways that first generation Caribbean-Canadians use cricket to maintain their association with people, places, spaces, and memories of home. In this multi-sited ethnography I examine a group I call the Mavericks Cricket and Social Club (MCSC), an assembly of first generation migrants from the Anglo-Caribbean. My objective to “follow the people” took me to parties, fundraising dances, banquets, and cricket games throughout the Greater Toronto Area on weekends from early May to late September in 2008 and 2009. I also traveled with approximately 30 MCSC members to observe and participate in tours and tournaments in Barbados, England, and St. Lucia and conducted 29 in- depth, semi-structured interviews with male players and male and female supporters. I found that the Caribbean diaspora is maintained through liming (hanging out) at cricket matches and social events. Speaking in their native Patois language, eating traditional Caribbean foods, and consuming alcohol are significant means of creating spaces in which Caribbean- Canadians can network with other members of the diaspora.

    Firstly, I am very thankful to my parents who helped me as they bought some useful stationary items for my project work. I am also thankful to my PHYSICAL EDUCATION subject teacher MR.VIJAY SIR who provided such a nice topic to make a project on it. I had taken reference from “ENCARTA EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE and also from INTERNET”. INTRODUCTION:- Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings. In professional cricket the length of a game ranges from 20 overs of six bowling deliveries per side to Test cricket played over five days. The Laws of Cricket are maintained by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) with additional Standard Playing Conditions for Test matches and One Day Internationals. Cricket was first played in southern England in the 16th century. By the end of the 18th century, it had developed into the national sport of England. The expansion of the British Empire led to cricket being played overseas and by the mid-19th century the first international matches were being held.
