Cricket Belgium

The Belgian Cricket Federation was formed in 1990 as a non-profit organisation, was a Founding Member of the European Cricket Council (ECC) and is now an Associate Member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Belgian Olympic and Interfederal Committee (BOIC). Registered under Belgian law as a non-profit organisation and operating as Cricket Belgium, it is the second Belgian Cricket Federation. The first was formed in the early 1900s and disappeared when World War One began. Records of the early federation are believed to have been evacuated to the UK and have never been found. The Belgian Cricket Federation runs senior and junior cricket in Belgium and places most emphasis on development. Its national squads of senior, U19, U17 and U15 play in ICC-Europe Championships and a number of its junior sides play in the Dutch competition as well. All Officers and Executive Committee members of Cricket Belgium are directly elected by majority club vote at the Annual General Meeting and all serve entirely voluntarily.
