🏏❤️ CRICKET BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER – A DAY OF LEARNING, FRIENDSHIP AND INTEGRATION AT EMBRACH!

On 8 July 2026, Embrach Cricket Academy welcomed around 25 young participants, aged 15–25, from asylum centres in the Thurgau region for a special day of cricket, learning and community engagement at Embrach Cricket Ground.

In collaboration with volunteers from the Swiss Red Cross, the Academy created a welcoming and inclusive environment where participants could discover cricket, learn new skills, make friends and enjoy a day of sport and togetherness.

🏏 Learning beyond the game!

The training session was adapted to different levels of cricketing experience, giving everyone an opportunity to get involved, learn the basics and experience the joy of playing cricket.

An important highlight was that the entire programme was conducted in German, allowing participants to practise their language skills in a relaxed, practical and enjoyable environment.

❤️ More than just cricket!

At Embrach Cricket Academy, we believe that sport has the power to break barriers, build friendships and create opportunities. Through cricket, we aim to support social integration, encourage participation and bring people from different backgrounds together.

The smiles, enthusiasm and energy on the ground said it all!

A big thank you to the Swiss Red Cross, all the volunteers, coaches and everyone who contributed to making this day such a memorable experience.

Cricket for everyone. Opportunities for all. Together, we grow! 🌍🏏

An amazing day on Sunday in Cossonay!

26/05/2026

Two tough battles this weekend for Embrach Thunder against A1 Sports Club — and exactly the kind of challenge that makes us stronger. 💥⚡

Facing an experienced side on a different surface in Basel pushed us out of our comfort zone, and that experience is priceless for our squad. Every point, every rally, every tough moment is helping us grow.

Huge thanks to A1 Sports Club for hosting and for two competitive matches.

Now all eyes turn to Cossonay. The work starts now. Back to training. Hard yards. More intensity. More hunger.

Thunder players—keep showing up, keep pushing each other, and keep believing. We’re building something special. ⚡💪
