Cricket in South Florida? Really? Oh yes. There’s a huge West Indian and Jamaican community in South Florida, plus a very sizable British expat population. As such, cricket is actually quite popular in these parts. Indeed, the South Florida Cricket Alliance is one of the largest cricket clubs in the US; contact the club if you'd like to watch a match or join a team.
Other local cricketing opportunities can be found through the Cricket Council of the USA (www.cricketcouncilusa.com), based in Boca Raton, and the first dedicated cricket pitch in the country which opened in Lauderhill (where the population is 25% West Indian), north of Fort Lauderdale, in 2008.
