The Norwegian Cricket Federation (NCF) is the governing body for the sport of Cricket in Norway. In addition to its normal league which is distributed in four divisions, it also conducts some shorter tournaments throughout the season. A T20 tournament is one such tournament and it is held towards the end of July and continues until the mid of August. This year the competition will start on 18th July, 2011 and NTNUI Cricket Club, although is amateur as it is only 7 months old, has confirmed its participation in it. The details of the tournament can be found on NCF's official website:

It has been possible to register and get prepared for the competition after standard equipment for the sport arrived the last week. In order to train players, a couple of practice hours are dedicated every weekend. Starting from this weekend, the venue and time of the practice sessions will be announced through the mailing list and everybody is welcomed to join.
