Cricket on Ice 2013

Please check the gallery of the 2013 event 

 

The picture-postcard Swiss resort of St Moritz is famous for the beauty of its ski slopes and the adrenalin rush of the Cresta Run, but for sheer quirkiness few sporting occasions can beat its February cricket festival on the ice of its frozen lake! 

 

This testimony to sports's eccentricity began to take shape in 1988, when a group of intrepid British cricketers challenged the students of the international boarding school Lyceum Alpinum Zuoz to a match. Ever since, it has become an integral part of the official cricket calendar, attracting international players and high-flying business people from all over the world.

 

There is no need to mention the fact that outside of the British Commonwealth spectators at cricket matches always follow the match with a certain smile on their faces...

 

The teams due to participate in the 2013 tournament are as follows:

  • Old Cholmeleians (Highgate, London)
  • Winterthur Cricket Club (Winterthur, Switzerland)
  • St. Moritz CC President's XI (from all around the world)
  • Lyceum Alpinum (Zuoz, Switzerland)

 

The officials for the 2013 tournament will be: Mr. A.Mackay (Switzerland); Mr. A.Holton (Germany); Mr. P. de Boeck (Belgium); Mr. Clive Denney (Switzerland); Ms. M.Koshy (Switzerland)

 

You don't need an entry ticket to attend Cricket on Ice. You are very welcome to drop by and watch, enjoy some food and refreshments while relaxing and enjoy the unique cricket atmosphere with the players and other guests.
