1. Shanghai Sports Personality Awards @ The Camel

    16 February 20127:00 pm to 11:00 pm

    Its that time of the year again, when the Bashers are completely overlooked as the #1 sports club in Shanghai and a bunch of sailors turn up and pretend that sailing in China is actually fun.

    Yes you guessed it, the Shanghai Sports Personality Awards are this Thursday 16th at the Camel from 7 pm.

    Please come down and show your support for the SCC Dragons who are up for team of the year. It will be a good night and you can count on the Gaelic football girls getting loose so everyones a winner!

    Blazers compulsory!

  2. 4,000 tree Bashers Bush!

    Happy New Year to you Bashers out there! I hope you all had a great holiday and are ready to hit 2012 for a big old six!

    To start the year of with a bang I am happy to announce that with all the hard work we put in last year with Shanghai Roots and Shoots we have achieved the great land mark of 4000 trees and thus we have our very own forest!

    Here is a great message from Tori, Zeezee and the team at Roots and Shoots explaining what we have achieved and re-confirming that The Bashers set the standard for all other clubs in Shanghai.

    The certificate will be taking pride of place on the wall in the Members End at the Camel and serve as a reminder to all of us that this club is so much more than just Cricket. (more…)

  3. 2011 Awards Nominations

    Help!

    While you wait for your blazers to be dry-cleaned for next weekend please have a think about Bashers deserving of recognition this year.

    We’ll take any suggestions you have, any moments from 2011 which are deserving of acknowledgement.

    Have a look at the previous year’s awards (in the sidebar at right) for some idea of some of the traditional awards which need filling.

    Have a read through some of the lumberjack reports to jog your memories.

    I don’t care, nominate yourself if you want.

    To keep things as opaque as possible, please send all nominations through to blog@basherscc.org

    Also, any photos from this season, don’t keep them to yourself. Send them in just like you didn’t last year.

    do it now!

    cheers

  5. Who has seen the BREEZER Trophy??


    Guys, after been led in circles on a wild goose chase, we still don’t know where the Breezer Trophy is being kept. Some THINK they saw it at Camel. Can anyone state when they last saw it, and where. LAMMA CC are visiting this weekend to play for the Trophy, and we need to find it by then. What a debacle…

  6. 2011 SCC Kickoff Extravaganza

    1 April 2011 to 3 April 2011

  9. Stats talks Stats and SPORTZVAULT!!!!

    Gentlemen and esteemed Bashers,

    Sportzvault has since its inception been the bane of the skippers’ existences… The nongmin on the phone in the lift, the mosquito buzzing around you in bed – in other words very annoying.

    The SCC have taken over responsibility of updating this system once the scores have been agreed upon by the playing captains and submitted to the Club.

    We have now been given a period of a week to confirm the facts and figures in the system before they are logged in for good. So anyone who wants to keep a tally on runs / wickets / catches etc MUST double check their stats in the days following the game. If there are mistakes, let their respective skippers know by the THURSDAY (in email format please) or forever hold you peace.

    To make life easier – here is the link for you all – in future, please check the fixed links on the blog

    Any further questions – please talk to the voting members of the committee.

    Much love,
    Stats
