Back in 1993, cricket was not as popular in Malaysia as it is now so the KeLawar Cricket Club was established in Kuala Lumpur to provide a team to play in both social and competitive cricket matches for expatriates and Malaysians. Since then, cricket in Malaysia, and the KeLawar Cricket Club, have continued to grow and there are now many more leagues and tournaments to participate in.

In 2007 KeLawar will be participating in Division 1 and 3 of the National Inter Club League (NIC), Navaratnam Shield and the Tunku Imran League as well as many social games in and around Kuala Lumpur. There are also the Six a side and 8 a side tournaments, that are very fast and entertaining, that the club participates in.  As well as those matches played in Kuala Lumpur, KeLawar also partakes in tours to Penang, Kuantan and Singapore, just to name a few.

KeLawar also enjoy hosting touring teams visiting Malaysia and in the past have played matches against teams from Australia, Singapore, and Thailand. If you are interested in touring Malaysia and would like to play a match against KeLawar, please read our guidlines for visiting teams.

Due to the shortage of available cricket pitches in Kuala Lumpur, in 2004 the KeLawar Cricket Club donated an Astro Turf cricket pitch to the Alice Smith International School, Equine Park Campus. This is now used as the club’s home pitch, however it is currently unavailable due to damage that needs repairing. Having the facility of a home pitch has added many more matches into the club’s calendar so the club is looking at finding a temporary home pitch until the repairs at Alice Smith can be completed. There is plenty of cricket to be played and KeLawar are always looking for more players to join.
