How We’re Growing LMS Cricket in Bloemfontein

If you’ve never heard of LMS Cricket before, you’re in for a treat. LMS (that’s Last Man Stands) is a global 8-a-side cricket format that’s taken the world by storm—fast-paced, action-packed, and fun for all skill levels. Now, it’s finding a firm home right here in Bloemfontein, and we’re here to tell you why that’s such a big deal.

But this isn’t just about the game. It’s about growing a movement. We’re on a mission to make LMS cricket more than just a league—we want it to be a local legacy for both juniors and seniors.


Why LMS Cricket?

So, what makes LMS different from the usual Saturday league setup?

For starters, it’s quick. Matches are done in about two hours. That means more games, more excitement, and less waiting around. Each team has eight players, and—you guessed it—the last man really does stand. It’s accessible, social, and doesn’t demand an entire weekend. Whether you’re 13 or 33, LMS makes cricket approachable and fun.

The format is perfect for juniors getting into the game—it’s fast, inclusive, and helps them build confidence without too much pressure. But adults love it too. LMS blends competitiveness with laughter, making it a brilliant way to stay active and connected.

Our Strategy for Growth

To grow LMS Cricket in Bloemfontein, we’ve gone beyond the boundary rope.

We’ve got weekly social media coverage that includes highlight reels, fun matchday interviews, and behind-the-scenes moments. It’s all about celebrating every player—from seasoned all-rounders to kids who’ve just swung their first bat.

We’re teaming up with schools, talking to parents, and creating matchdays that feel like festivals. Add in events like the Juniors LMS Challenge Cup, and we’ve got all the right ingredients for a booming cricket culture.

Junior Development in the Spotlight

Our juniors aren’t just names on a team sheet—they’re the future of the game.

Ask any of the parents on a Sunday—many will tell you it’s the highlight of their week. As one mom put it, “He used to dread sport. Now he won’t stop talking about cricket.”

Lights, Camera, Cricket!

We’re not shy when it comes to putting LMS cricket in the spotlight.

With photos, short videos, blogs, and even podcasts, we’re building momentum online and offline. You’ll catch us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok—because that’s where the community is, and that’s where we want to show off the action.

The kids love seeing themselves on screen, and sponsors love the visibility too. Win-win.


When to Expect What Cricket Content

Here’s a rough guide to the type of content you can expect from us each week. It’ll probably change a bit depending on availability, but this is what we’re aiming for:


Powered by Sponsors and Community

None of this works without support. Our current sponsors are absolute legends. Their logos are on our posts, banners, and even the odd hat or two.

We’re always looking for more community heroes—whether you’re a business wanting to give back, or just a fan who loves the game. Sponsorship helps cover kits, field fees, photography, and more. It’s more than marketing—it’s investing in our youth.
