THE LEAGUE PLAY WILL START IN MAY. GO TO www.hungary4cricket.com and check out the 2008 schedule. Cricket is now here in Hungary! A small group of cricket lovers gathered in a Budapest pub in February 2007 and by November of the same year and after a very successful first ever cricket season in Hungarian history, they gathered again with over 90 other cricketing players and enthusiasts to celebrate. CRICKET, There's fun for everyone in this sport weather you participate or just watch all the action!!! David Brown, Vice-Chairman of the Cricket Association of Hungary comments “Cricket is probably the most complicated game in the world and in many ways typically British. It’s just fantastic that the game has now been established here in Hungary. I feel the Hungarian people have the needed natural ability to master this game and I am going to do everything in my power to bring the game to them. Cricket is here to stay and the rewards of playing this game are not only the benefit of a fine physical workout, but also the benefit of building a disciplined and mentally strong character. If someone had told me that I would be invited to Lords, UK (home of world cricket) in a year from our very first meeting, to discuss the future of Hungarian Cricket, there is no way I would have believed it.” Cricket is also for families, it’s played in the summer and the family can come and relax and watch in peaceful surroundings.
