Pres & Coach Rant

Updated March 13th, 2009

I get pestered from our webmistress and others about how little I write for this section of the website. The answer I usually give is that the title says "President's Rant" and there just isn't anything to rant about. So when I write a rant without being asked to, you know that I have something to rant about!.....

Can't bat, can't bowl, can't field? Join the Club mate!! Dunno fine leg from Fine Cotton? Well, kampai cobba, c'mon in! There's more to being a Tokyo Wombat than disgracing yourself on the cricket field.......

Golden Thong ...... Z-file

The Golden Thong? How does a humble piece of footwear become a cricket club's trophy awarded for 'Stupidus Uber Alles'? Fire extinguishers, parachutes, pepper spray and donuts. To learn about some of our more memorable off-field action.

HARDYS' M.o.M.

Alex "Robin" Vakil plundered 39 runs in the long grass at Fuji to steer the Wombats to a decent score. He was then very tidy behind the stumps to finish off a good day's cricket and take home the prize for best on ground.

Wommies Out of the Burrow

With what started from taking a quick trip down to the shops on the pushy to pick up a carton of milk all went horribly wrong when my brother took a wrong corner and now 25 000kms over a stretch of 18 months in a monster bicycle tour around Australia...

WOMBATS MAKE LIGHT WORK OF ADORE IN FUJI FIELDS (12/05/2012)

At the usual inappropriately early rendez-vous on Saturday morning, there was concern that Dino's laziness to send round a call list had backfired when there was a 15 minute delay in the bus' arrival. Could it be that the senior trio of Wombats had snoozed?

CHIANG MAI SIXES: TOKYO PEAK EARLY....AGAIN

There are a lot of good signs pointing to a revival in fortunes for the Tokyo Wombats. When a veteran freak like Luke Ray talks of the old days, people should sit up and listen. To all those newcomers, welcome. You've joined something more than a club. The Wombats are family. I can't imagine life down here in Gotham City without the other Wombats.

NEW-LOOK WOMBATS STEAL ADORE EASTER EGGS (08/04/2012)

In cool but fine conditions in Fuji on Easter Sunday, the Tokyo Wombats took to the field with four debutants to secure a gritty victory against Adore to launch their 2012 JCL campaign. It was no plain sailing for TWCC, as the game swung the way of both teams quite a few times, but the former JCL champs eventually sealed the win by bowling the opposition out in the 35th over, 15 runs short of their target.

JOIN THE TOKYO WOMBATS CRICKET CLUB IN 2012!

TOKYO WOMBATS are a successful club, having won numerous successive premierships, and played finals' cricket in almost every season. However winning, and even playing, is only part of what we do - or why we do it. It's more about having a laugh, making some mates, getting out of Tokyo. Even if your cricket skills are average at best, join us for a drink.

"There's more to playing cricket than just playing cricket."

There are irregular practise sessions in season, but these are light-hearted affairs. A chance to catch up with mates, have a trundle. The same goes for playing.

We are sponsored by HARDYS WINES of Australia. Their generosity underlines our fund-raising, which helps keep our fees lower than other clubs. HARDYS provides wines for quiz nights, raffles, and on-field awards.

We also receive generous support from Australia's ANZ BANK.

Tokyo Wombats make annual tours to Chiang Mai (Thailand) and Kobe.

If you want to have a run in 2012, please contact the Club! If you're a non-player and prefer talking and watching over a drink, then drop us a line.

NOTE: We are an AMATEUR club. We DO NOT pay players, hire coaches or sponsor visas from overseas.
