2015 is a very special Chiang Mai International Cricket Sixes Tour for the Perth Postels, this is our 20th fantastic tour to Chiang Mai. In 1996, a raw group arrived into Chiang Mai, not knowing what was going on, we went on to make the Cup Final. Over the years we have had huge success on and off the cricket ground and the main lasting thing about the tour is the many friends made on the way. Thank-you to the Chiang Mai Cricket Sixes Tournament!
On Sunday night 5 April 2015, Kevin Buchanan of the Crazy German Bar will be hosting a Very Casual Perth Postels 20th Year Anniversary Party. A BBQ will be put on throughout the evening. Please everyone, feel free to join us for this very special fun night for us!
