This season we welcomed Ernest Maude Continental Investments and Somerley Ltd as title sponsors of the Saturday and Sunday Leagues respectively; the first League sponsors for some years. We would hope to retain their support in coming seasons.

The season opening, inaugural Platypus Cup match, featuring the best players from the independent sides vs the best of the Clubs, delivered an entertaining match eventually won by the Independents and proved a popular concept. It is expected the fixture will become a regular feature in the HK cricket calendar. [More]
