Berlin Cricket Academy

We are proud to be featured by the DOSB 🇩🇪 – German Olympic Sports Federation

Our President and founder, Mohammed Musthafa, had the opportunity to share the journey of Berlin Cricket Academy in an interview with the DOSB 🇩🇪 — from building grassroots cricket to creating opportunities for juniors, women & men.

This is not just about cricket, but about community, integration, and creating a space for everyone.

This weekend, we proudly hosted the ICC Level 1 Coaching Course in partnership with ODCV, DCB, and ICC.

We are excited to announce that 7 new coaches have successfully completed their certification! 👏🏏

A big thank you to the tutors for their guidance throughout the course. And a huge congratulations to all the participants—we wish you the very best on your coaching journey.

Our men’s team traveled to Warsaw, Poland, over the weekend to compete in the ECC T10 Championship and finished as Runners-Up, missing out in the finals against the hosts.

Led ably by Siva, the boys had a flawless run through the league stage but came up short in the final. The Warsaw Royals CC set a huge target of 181/1 in 10 overs, and despite a valiant effort, we managed 142/3 in 10 overs.

Nihal’s blazing 80 off just 27 balls kept us in the hunt and earned him the Best Batter of the Tournament, scoring a remarkable 255 runs at an average of 75.19 across 6 games.

Our ever-reliable Mo was named Best Bowler of the Tournament, claiming 11 wickets in the competition.

Every player stood tall when the team needed it most, and we are proud of the fight and spirit shown throughout the tournament.

A big thank you to for their warm welcome and wonderful hospitality throughout the competition. 🙏❤️

Well done, team!
