Regardless of its international reputation, the Hong Kong Cricket Club did not, and could not, exist on Interports and Friendly matches alone. Competitive league cricket is the backbone of the Club's day-to-day existence.
HKCC currently runs three teams in the domestic Saturday League competition and three teams in the Sunday League. Additionally, the Club provides teams in all junior league competitions (Under 13 to Under 19) and the HKCA Women's League.
The Cricket season runs from late September through to early May and Club team net practices are held under lights every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evening starting from 6:30 p.m.. Ladies' team practices are held on Friday evenings.
HKCC also organises junior coaching programmes in association with Hong Kong Cricket Assocation throughout the year. For more details please click on The Gappers.

From Captain of Cricket
By Darren Tucker
It is with much pride that I accept the role of Captain of Cricket. Having already been well educated by those before me of the responsibility that this role brings, I look forward to the challenges of maintaining our position within Hong Kong cricket and growing the opportunities for our members to play against teams from around the world and also, hopefully, visiting new and exciting destinations that can lay the foundations for future relationships.
Whilst the above is important, we must also continue to grow the game for men, women and children in Hong Kong and it is important that the Hong Kong Cricket Club maintains its leadership role in this area. It is also important that we continue supporting the game's growth plans in Asia and, in particular, in China.
2011 has been an amazing year for HKCC and the standard that has been set by our achievements during our 160th Anniversary have certainly raised the bar in what is expected of our Club, both from an on field performance point of view and also in the area of hospitality where, once again, the MCCs from the northern and southern hemispheres were treated to something their tourists will never forget.
 Michael Jamieson has left HKCC in a very positive position and I would like to thank him for his commitment and the work that he has done in his 10 + years at the Club. Michael has served in many areas, being honoured with the Clubman of the Year in 2006/7 Season and also played Sunday cricket for all 3 teams.
I would like to wish Jamo, Meg and the kids All The Best for the next phase of their family adventure back home in Melbourne. The Jamo Family will be missed!!
Congratulations to Courtney Kruger and Mark Ferguson who represented Hong Kong in the ACC T20 competition. Hong Kong lost the final by 8 runs to Afghanistan. The competition was played in Kathmandu.
To all Members - have a Safe and Happy New Year and I look forward to seeing you in 2012

The Fincher Shield 2011
In the 31 year history of the Fincher Shield, HKCC has prided itself on playing a brand of cricket that not only permeates pride in performance but also that of staunch cricketing etiquette for which the Club is well known. The weekend of the 3rd/4th December was no exception, with the stakes high, as in addition to the retention of the Teddy Fincher Shield, a victory would give us a break on the field in the inaugurate season of the ‘Premier League’.
The end result was a very satisfying victory by an innings and 6 runs with Stephen Hawinkels named as deserving man of the match with his 171.
