Sorry JMO, can't help, wish I could. I would also love a game of cricket up here at the top of Incheon. When I go back down south, this and touch rugby will be my priority.

Used to play touch rugby on the beach at university, thats quite fun.

Cricket is a wonderful game, although many would argue. Well worth learning and participating in. In fact, I've just ordered a full set of gear from NZ, in anticipation of playing a few overs. More designed for my move back down south to Jincheon, just north of Cheong-ju (the town has a wonderful oval), but maybe a few locals up here, will be interested.
Good luck finding a game. You will enjoy it.

Cricket? Aweseome. I was a spin bowler in middle and high school. I thnk I still remember a few grips. I've heard there are cricket clubs in Korea (maybe just urban legend for the wishful thinkers though). I wonder if a fellow could just turn up and play? I certainly couldn't make it anywhere regularily.

Thanks dude..hook me up, although i am looking to learn the game as a beginner.

Also nobody out there got the softball hook up for a skinny irish man with good hand eye co-ordination and childhood rounders experience.
