We play every Sunday at the Gingins Centre Sportif, Route de Chiblins Gingins from 10:00am to 12:00pm.
We have two different groups, one for the Under 7s and another for the Over 7s. The U7 play until about 11:30am depending on willingness (it gets a bit long for the little ones sometimes) whilst the Over 7s play on until 12pm and some of the kids play beyond that sometimes.
For more information, please contact Scott Poynton at gcc.contact@ginginscricketclub.com
Cricket is a game best played in good weather! Here in Switzerland, rain or bad weather can be very localised so it could be sunny in Geneva but raining in Gingins. In case of poor weather (rain, hail or snow - all possible at any given time of the year) the Sunday session will be cancelled or as we say in cricket language 'Rain Stopped Play'.
We'll post info in the table below for the date and a notice on whether the session is ON or OFF by 09:00am on the morning of each Sunday session so people can check to see whether we're going ahead with a session or not.
There's nothing like standing around in cold weather to dim youngsters love of the game so if the weather's looking poorly, we will cancel but rest assured that our aim, at all times, is to play whenever we can.
Gingins is easy to reach: take the Nyon exit (exit #11) from the autoroute and head toward St Cergue. You'll pass the Signy Centre on your left and at the 2nd roundabout, turn left and follow the signs to Gingins.
