Article II. Purpose
The purpose of GCC is to introduce cricket to the UF campus. This club will teach new players how to play the game and understand the rules of the game. We aim to introduce cricket to the UF sports culture by holding practice and game sessions weekly and inviting everyone with an interest to play and participate. We want to spread cricket by expanding these sessions into intramural and club cricket so we can compete with other cricket clubs.
GCC is currently affiliated to a national organization, American College Cricket.
