Dear Singh Sahib, Thank you for making this Acdemy in Tha phra area.We just visited the location.It is nice and No smoke or noise from traffic.We are from India & working here for past 3 years and did not know where to play cricket.We used to play in the street. Now we have found a place near our company rented house and have already registered ourselves.Just 100 Baht per person for adults after the membership. We were impressed with 15-20 flood lights which will allow us play in the evenings after the office.

Hi Cricket lovers, Having read about the article in Bangkok post on 14th November 'Bangkok gets its first Cricket Academy' I went through the web site [bca.net23.net] and was impressed about the passion of a local Cricketer who has tried to give back some thing to the game and has provided cricket facility to we expatriates. I went to see the place after making an appointment with Mr. Harry Singh this evening.He was fixing the flood lights at the Academy. The place is huge and built on 2200 sq. meter of privately owned land.3 practice nets,a grass field and a new multi purpose ground for foot sal,basket ball and indoor cricket. Mr.Singh mentioned about his love for the game and development programmes which started on 15th Nov.There is a nice Englaish man called Adrian Salter helping him to train the kids and any one needs help in improving their game.He is building a club building and soon make it a back bone of Cricket in Thailand.The best thing he mentioned that he enjoys full support of BCL teams & CAT and specially from Mr.Kader who is the CEO of Thailand cricket. The academy is charging only Baht 2000 per season for training & coaching with a foreign coach.Listening to him made me feel that he has great hope in development of cricket in Bangkok. Lets support this guy and appreciate him for his work.Our team will start our cricket practice at BCA .
