Royal Brussels Cricket Club
Description
Royal Brussels Cricket Club is a multicultural club with many nationalities which contributes to a great social atmosphere. It is a cliché, but with many of us not living in our home countries, RBCC is not just a cricket club, it’s also almost a way of life.
People join the club to play cricket, but make friends, enjoy training and after-game sessions, while having a drink, mulling over the day, getting stuck into a BBQ, and generally enjoying themselves in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere
Without a doubt, RBCC is the most socially active cricket club in Belgium and it’s a compliment that many past members who have moved on still correspond with us from the UK, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and many other cricket playing nations.
So feel free to contact us to get involved with the batting, bowling, beers, BBQs and of course, social banter.
