Toronto, ON: 2026 Oxford v Cambridge Alumni Cricket Match

We are very excited to announce this year's Oxford v Cambridge Alumni cricket match will be on Sunday September 20th, 2026 starting at 12:30pm. The 44th anniversary of the match will once again be played on the Lord's Field at Upper Canada College in Toronto. Last year was a really enjoyable event, with good weather, and saw many Oxbridge alumni attend both as players and spectators. The match concluded with Cambridge celebrating a one-run victory and taking home the Mitchener-Bredin Trophy for the third year running.

The match will be a traditional red ball game played in white clothing with a tea break between innings (sandwiches, drinks and cake) for both players and spectators to enjoy. There is a match fee of $35 for players and no charge for spectators. Parking and washrooms are available on site. The game is open to all levels of players, young and old, as well as spectators who would like to enjoy watching the game.

If you'd like to play in the match, or spectate, please can you RSVP to the event organizer Martin Sykes (Oxon, St Anne's 2005) at martinalansykes@gmail.com by September 6th.

Date: Sunday, September 20

Time: 12:30pm-5:00pm ET

Location: Lord's Field at Upper Canada College
