Check out the British Expats monthly meet up in Chilliwack.

Oh my goodness, they must have had a get together last night, Friday, October 9th.

Well, I hope one of the Fraser Valley gang will respond to your post.

Hi Dingbat,

I am trying to track down people interested in playing social and competitive cricket in Chilliwack next year. I have a good mix so far of all nationalities including Canadians would you believe!!! I am a New Zealander, I have three Brits, a couple of Canucks, a West Indian and a Ukranian born in Australia to a Canadian mother, hilarious!

I would love to catch up with anyone interested, I am also chasing people on the South African expat site.

The guys at the Victory have been helpful and we look to have sponsorship from a pub in Chilliwack. Now we just need a pitch which the city are looking into.

If anyone knows Brits who would be keen (must be over 15 - girls or boys) then get them to get in touch at [email protected]

Thanks all.

Scott

Cricket in the Wack - that'll be a first! Cynthia and Alan will be a great help. Hit Dickens as well on Alexander - some of the longer term residents may be interested. Ask for Jean from Northern Ireland or Ann and Fred (who own the place). My OH is a Celtic boy - to have him defect to cricket would be a monumental undertaking. I know another Kiwi bloke who lives right by me - will pass on your info!

Re: Chilliwack
 

Thanks!

I think we will have quite a good bunch of gents. I have also had interest from 4 or 5 women and my wife (Canadian) has piped up to say she wants to play so if any ladies would like to have a go then that is an option also.

I shall go and see the crew at Dickens, my daughter loves that place!

Too complex. There's no mileage in it - everyone's too stoned in the Wack. :unsure:

Re: Chilliwack

Re: Chilliwack
 

Where are you at the moment? Chilliwack is growing very quickly, but is missing an infrastructure and transport to support the growth. What jobs are you looking at?

Re: Chilliwack
 

What would be attractive about that ? :confused:

Re: Chilliwack
 

Lots of entry level low paid work, other then that you pretty much have to commute.

I lived here and gave up trying to find a job locally, so now I am looking into commuting.

They are good at building housing project after housing project here but lack the thought to keep up with the roads, transit and other infrastructure needed for a growing city and the current major is against rail to the city since we currently have no link to the western city's without a car or on greyhound.

And still no-one looking for Cricket?
