It is not the win that matters, but how you play the game.
A stalwart contender in almost all of the outdoor competitive
sports since its inception, the BRC offers its members the pleasure of
playing hockey, cricket, rugger, soccer, volleyball and tennis, whilst
taking part in athletics as well. The BRC is also very proud of its ladies,
who not to be outdone, play for their own hockey and netball teams, and
have been known to score highly in the athletics team and
individual performances over the years.
The BRC is especially proud to have its own men’s cricket team,
which enjoys the distinction of playing in Division One, sponsored by the Sri
Lanka Cricket Board, the official body for cricket in the country. The Club
also boasts of its very own hockey team, whose excellent reputation has led to
the BRC hosting most of the hockey games and tournaments sponsored by the Sri
Lanka Hockey Federation (SLHF).
From a recreational point of view, the BRC also caters to its
members who love a quiet game of snooker or billiards within the warm and cosy
environs of the Clubhouse. Since 1973, the BRC has enjoyed affiliation to the
Billiards Association and Control Council of Ceylon.
