12 Stars CC, proudly representing Belgium, has emerged as one of the prominent cricket clubs in a nation where cricket isn't typically the first sport that springs to mind. Formed in 2005, a handful of passionate expats and cricket enthusiasts came together in Antwerp, driven by their shared love for the game. Over time, this humble beginning burgeoned into a team that stands as a testament to Belgium’s ever-growing cricketing ambitions.
In their nearly two decades of existence, 12 Stars CC have managed to carve out a decent niche for themselves within the European cricket scene. Despite the obstacles of establishing a strong cricketing culture here, they secured the Belgian Championship title three times—an impressive feat showcasing their determination and skill. Their consistency in domestic tournaments has turned them into a formidable force with each passing season.
12 Stars CC have had many noteworthy players, yet a few stand out for their remarkable contributions. Opening batsman, Arnav Singh, known for his elegant yet aggressive style, has been pivotal in setting the pace, often dominating opposition bowlers with aplomb. Meanwhile, all-rounder Sofie Vandenberghe, who captivates with both her dynamic batting and deceptive spin bowling, provides balance and depth to the playing XI. These players, among others, have not only made headlines but have inspired the next generation of Belgian cricketers.
Matches against teams like Beveren CC have turned into highly anticipated encounters. The local derby against Beveren injects an extra layer of excitement to the otherwise calm cricketing circuit in Belgium, with tightly contested games that keep fans on the edge of their seat. The rivalry adds an authentic touch to the sport's development in the region, drawing in more spectators each season.
The team's style is marked by strategic aggressiveness. A blend of calculated risk-taking coupled with disciplined field setups showcases their adaptive playing nature. Such flexibility has often given them the upper hand in fiercely contested matches.
Culturally, 12 Stars CC embraces Belgium's diversity, blending sporting customs from various cricket-playing nations. This multicultural ethos is reflected in their traditional post-match get-togethers, where players and fans mingle, celebrating the game with classic Belgian treats and international flair.
The Royal Antwerp Cricket Ground serves as their home. While modest in size, the ground buzzes during match days. Regular fans, though small in number, are fiercely passionate, offering unwavering support that lights up the atmosphere. Banners waving, chants echoing—these loyal fans embody the spirit of the team, making the 12 Stars CC not just a collection of players, but a vibrant community fostering the growth of cricket in Belgium.
