Barmy Army Team confirmed for the FairBreak Invitational 2023!
In April 2023, Hong Kong will host the second showpiece event in a global movement to promote equality for all. From the 3rd to the 16th April 2023, watch all games live from the iconic Kowloon Cricket Club.
The Barmy Army is proud to have played a major part in the launch of FairBreak Global in 2022 and to see the impact that the initiative has already had on women’s cricket. As we look forward to sponsoring our own team in 2023, we’re delighted to continue growing women’s cricket globally.
After falling just short last year, the Barmy Army team is hopeful that they will be able to claim the trophy this time around!
