Wanna play cricket or cheer us on, get in touch From humble beginnings, when a group of cricket-mad Sri Lankans came together to form a team for the Wellington Cricket Association’s 1-Day B Grade competition, we've grown into a thriving club with 9 senior teams and 5 junior teams! 🌟

In just our second season, we claimed the B Grade title, setting the stage for decades of memorable performances. Our legacy is built on the passion and dedication of our founding members, such as Rohan Mendis, Riza, Ajith Fernando, and the legendary Fernando family. 🎉

From the early days of self-supplied gear and rotating players, to historic moments like our first centurion and standout bowling performances, we’ve grown stronger each year. With both senior and junior teams, we’re proud to continue our tradition of excellence in Wellington’s cricket scene. Follow us for club updates, match highlights, and behind-the-scenes moments as we celebrate the spirit of cricket right here in NZ! 🇱🇰🏆

INDOOR CRICKET SUPERLEAGUE – BRONZE MEDAL 🥉

A huge congratulations to our boys from Cow Corner Hunter Lions, representing Wellington Indoor Sports, on an outstanding season in the Indoor Cricket SuperLeague held over the past 4 months!

After qualifying for Division 1 in the Opens Grade with a strong performance in the early rounds, the boys put together a spectacular campaign, finishing 3rd out of 10 teams.

Their journey came to a heartbreaking end in a last-ball thriller against Hutt Pups in the division 1 semi-final. While the result didn’t go their way, the boys can be incredibly proud of what they achieved this season.

Congratulations, boys! A fantastic effort from start to finish, and a great platform to build on. Let's take that energy outdoors and get ready for the Lions Sports Club season!
