American College Cricket on TV in USA & Canada – Schedule starts Oct 29 !
In 2008 American College Cricket pioneered cricket on Facebook then Twitter, and now on Google plus. The New York Times was persuaded to cover the first nationals, the American College Cricket Spring Break Championship in March 2009.
Then in March 2010 American College Cricket was first to broadcast domestic cricket in the USA and Canada, when the Semi Finals and Finals of the 2010 American College Cricket Spring Break Championship were webcast.York College, UMBC, USF and York University featured in those matches.
The bar was set, and as intended more cricket organisations in the USA & Canada began webcasting.
Now 3 years after American College Cricket’s founding ,and 167 years after the momentous first International sporting event: a cricket match between USA & Canada, in 1844; American College Cricket has taken another giant leap for cricket in the America and Canada, by bringing it to TV, with its exclusive Media Partner TV Asia.
