Welcome to Old Royalists CC Website
The Old Royalists' Cricket Club was formed in October 2009, by Old Royalists Cricketers in the UK, under the guidance of Mr Ganga Kumarasuriyar. Objective was to help consolidate and organise their Cricket activities and to get together as a team and play throughout the cricket season in the summer.
ORCC entered the division 1 of the Surrey Cricket League, affiliated to the England Cricket Board, for the 2010 Cricket tournament. Having finished second in the league they were promoted to the Premier Division in 2011.
In 2011, ORCC under the captaincy of Danushka Perera , won 10 of the 13 matches played, losing only two matches and the other ending in a tie. They ended the 2011 season in the second place (Runner-Up) in Premier Division of the Surrey Cricket League. This was a remarkable achievement by a club that was formed only two years ago and played for the first time in the Premier Division having competed with a number of well established cricket teams.
Captain Danushka Perera was awarded as the Premier Division Batsman of the Year 2011 at the Surrey Cricket League Awards Ceremony held at Richmond Hill Hotel in Richmond on 29/10/2011.
