Sunset Beach Club is proud to have been selected, once again, as the official hotel partner for the European Cricket Championship (ECC) which takes place at the Cartama Oval from the 25th September to the 20th October 2023.
Teams from 31 European Countries will take part in the T-10 competition and will be split into 6 groups, each consisting of 5 teams. The shortened format of these matches – they last 90 minutes – means that cricket fans can enjoy several matches each day.
Group A: Spain, Isle of Man, France, Czech Republic and Greece
Group B: Jersey, Guernsey, Belgium, Croatia and Bulgaria
Group C: Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Serbia and Estonia
Group D: Ireland XI, Austria, Hungary, Finland and Turkey
Group E: England XI, Cyprus, Switzerland, Romania and Malta
Group F: Scotland XI, Germany, Portugal, Luxembourg and Norway
Matches take place over a period of 5 weeks from Monday 12th September. The defending champions, Netherlands XI, have automatically qualified for Championship Week which takes place from the 16th to the 20th October. The remaining 30 countries will participate in six different knock-out competitions. The winner of each week will qualify for Champions Week and face the Netherlands for the chance to win the title of European Cricket Champions.
