Bashers Cricket Club

Come to Shanghai’s best wine bar and have a few drinks on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

What better way to kick back on a Sunday than with a few drinks, and some great tunes in the background?

Come see the new outdoor bar, filled with cold beer, excellent wine as well as cocktails and other drinks at great prices.

This Sunday’s wine supplier is Boutique NZ who will be providing some specialty wines from New Zealand’s Redwood Cellars.

In addtion to the wonderful events found around town [including @ The Big Bamboo], Sponsors Justbeer.cn & Kooka Pies are hosting their 2009 Rugby League Grand Final as follows:

Date: 4th October

Time: From 3PM

Location: Shed #2 [aka The Beaver - 28 Yueyang Lu Near DongPing Lu]

Aussie beers are 25 RMB till midnight! A BARGIN!

Stay Loose & Don’t get arrested!

Due to underwhelming responses on both teams we have not gone ahead with plans for this Friday.

Wish all a great holiday and am sure the clicks around the club will arrange a Champions trophy  watch-a-thon somewhere .

Sunday night a good chance BS, Tank, and myself will be at Bamboo Hongmei if any other takers !

With the Bashers’ fully loaded city bus express, chauffeured by Shanghai Transport Service’s equivalent of a metro-sexual, heading straight for Bashers’ Beach, the scent of victory and Lambrusco was thick in the air. The ride itself was mainly uneventful, if you don’t count the fact that it was decided by unanimous vote that next year’s Bashers uniform would basically be designed by Dolce and Gabbana (scarves, handkerchiefs and cummerbuns…please).

Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes its true: Sticks and Stones have arrived in Shanghai. Sticks and Stones will be starting an indie rock night at Harley Bar on October 10th. This will be a monthly event. Don’t miss opening night as it’s going to be massive!!!!!!!

Opening night will see The Rainbow Danger Club playing live, and then DJ Boss (AKA Chewie/Cassius) seeing us through to the early hours of Sunday.

See you all on the 10th October. Don’t forget 9pm Harley Bar B1 265 Nan Dan Dong Lu.

If there are enough keen souls, we will arrange a cricket game on Friday afternoon against our friends , the Pudong cricket club. Game to be played at the SRFC where we can be Bashers !!

Business and Pleasure players welcome !

If we have enough to put together a team then we will do so .

That is Friday October 2nd !! Your chance to have a say !!

Well that’s not the kind of controversial ending we expected but exciting it was.

Most importantly we made a whole bunch of cash for the Million Tree Project – enough to plant 250 trees!

Just as importantly many good times were had, much beer and lambrusco were drunk in a lovely new venue.

Thanks must be extended to our generous prize sponsors;

Coca-Cola, Donelli, Diageo, Just Beer, Kooka Pies, Mrs Pusher’s cakes & One Wellness.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

And thank you Bashers, Geishas and the entire extended Basher family. Also great to see so many fresh faces.

i’m out on bail now so can present the results.

Any questions or statements – call me on 13761370255
See you all tonight or tomorrow morning

It is with much regret that we must postpone Bashers Family Day this Saturday.

As only 16 members have confirmed their availability, and 11 of those playing Saturday morning we need to postpone to a day when the majority of you are available. It’s your club and we all need to show our appreciation to those who give us the free time to enjoy our cricket.

Some other factors like being a work day for some, the AFL Grand Final and many with families abroad or on holidays again have not helped with the timing and we look forward to club input when a better date would be. (more…)
