Read on to find out more about the cricketing craze that is sweeping the nation and experience it yourself on a 4 day ice cricket tour to Estonia with Tours4 Sport.
Yep…Ice Cricket, as you can probably tell is cricket played on Ice. From late January to mid-March each year cricket teams from all over the world descend on Estonia’s beautiful capital city, Tallinn to play Ice Cricket on the ice covering Lake Harku, the Baltic sea or even in an old Soviet Missile Factory. The wicket is carved out of the ice, the boundary marked out to keep bewildered locals off the field and you use an indoor ball, just don’t forget your spikes. It’s a great chance to play social cricket with a difference, in one of the most incredible cities in Europe. Here at Tours4 Sport, we work with the Estonian National Cricket Association to ensure the smooth running of all of our Ice Cricket tours and tournaments so that everyone has a great time in the spirit of cricket.
