RYERSON STUDENT CRICKET ASSOCIATION

Our Mission

We are working towards establishing cricket as a recognized recreational sports at Ryerson University. As this target being partly achieved , we are also trying to expand our horizon and go beyond the Ryerson boundaries to establish cricketing relations with our counterparts at the other universities.

For that reason we, the RSCA, have decided to conduct a series of indoor cricket tournaments. The main objective of these tournaments is not only to promote cricket at Ryerson but also selecting the best players for Ryerson official cricket team. This will, we believe, somewhat initiate the process in encouraging other University organisations in doing so.

With the support of Ryerson's Student Government RyeSAC and Ryerson's Sports and Recreation Department, RAC, we are able to reach abit far into our goals and with the hope of continuous support from these two, we are looking forward towards the bright future of cricket at Ryerson University.
