Hi

I want to buy a cricket set (pref junior size) - got a summer camp coming up and I know my kids would love to learn a new game.

Any ideas where I could get a pair of wickets and bat? The wickets arn't a biggie, I could always make them myself, but I need a bat for 10-12 year olds (have no intention of giving them a cricket ball! - tennis will do Smile)

Thanks for any pointers!

Btw, if anyone knows a specific place a phone number would be super awsome/ net address!

I would contact the British Embassy. If anyone knows, I'm guessing they would.

The Foreign Food Mart in Itaewon often sell cheap wooden stumps and bats that are good only for tennis ball cricket.

If they don't have what you want, get in touch.
We have quite a lot of 'kanga/ kiwi/ kwik' cricket gear we could set you up with.

I've previously bought a cheap set from one of the Indian stores at Ansan stn.

Also, there is a Korean cricket association: http://www.cricket.or.kr/
