If cricket in Finland seems an odd phenomenon, howzat the combination women, cricket and Finland?
This latest development on the Finnish cricket scene has clearly been in the making for several years.
Women have long been involved as social members, tea-ladies or frustrated wives /girlfriends.
To mark the new millennium a group of women decided to join the fun for real. From there the success story enfolds.
In spring 2001 the FCA organised a ten session introductory course for women. The first ever women's game
in Finland was played on the European Cricket Day, 20th May 2001. More organised games followed throughout
the summer, including even the International Six-a-Side tournament hosted by SKK.
After an enthusiastic and spirited first season, the women decided to join SKK, forming its "babe-wing". 2002 sees regular training, challenging men's teams for games, the first women's international tour to Sweden.
