In recent years, BICC has welcomed many touring sides, mostly from the UK but also from our friends in Menorca. We are always happy to receive visitors, and our almost year-long season allows teams to come and get some winter sun whilst playing a bit of cricket. Our last two visitors have both been from the Hertfordshire league in England, Redbourn CC in 2019 and Botany Bay CC in 2022. With Covid/ travel restrictions now eased, we're hoping to receive more teams in the coming months. Below are some photos and from previous tours that we've hosted, and feel free to have a look at some of the tour reports here,
The club is currently in the process of looking for a new ground to be able to offer an improved playing surface. At the moment we should be able to use the Federation's grounds and the Olympic baseball ground in Barcelona. Be sure to follow our social media pages, or check back in on this website, to be kept up to date on our progress.

Chris, Botany Bay CC: "After a first overseas tour in many years, we would like to thank our hosts for their warmth and hospitality."
Dan, Menorca CC: "A very successful tour to Barcelona. They welcomed us with open arms, challenged us on the field, and entertained us magnificently at lunch. A top bunch of lads, and we very much look forward to hosting them in September. A very good fun tour, and I hope the first of many. Thanks to all involved."
Mark, Stanford Le Hope CC: "The anniversary celebrants may have lost both their tour matches, but ... the matches provided some valuable pre-season match practice in a warm Southern European climate, a far cry from the cold and wet conditions experienced in the UK at that time... Overall, it was a very enjoyable trip for the tourists with plenty of time to take in the sights."
