A Sporting Tradition with a Business Twist
In Cambodia’s evolving business landscape, networking increasingly extends beyond formal meetings and industry forums. The BritCham x AusCham Family Cricket Day, set for Saturday, 21 February from 11am to 5pm at the Australian International School Phnom Penh (AISPP), reflects how chambers are combining professional engagement with lifestyle and community connection.
Cricket — a sport deeply rooted in both British and Australian culture — will anchor the day’s activities. Friendly matches are designed to welcome players of all levels, while providing an informal setting for members of both chambers to strengthen relationships outside the usual business environment.

Spotlight on Cambodia’s Independent Businesses
Beyond the pitch, the event will highlight Cambodia’s independent business ecosystem. A curated vendor market featuring more than twenty local enterprises will operate throughout the day, offering handicrafts, jewellery, lifestyle goods, food, and beverages.
By integrating small and medium-sized businesses directly into chamber events, organisers are creating platforms for visibility and customer engagement, reinforcing the growing role of local enterprise within Cambodia’s commercial landscape.
Family-Focused Activities and Ticket Details
The event is positioned as a family-friendly gathering, with arts and crafts, face painting, and dedicated kids’ cricket activities complementing the sporting programme. An Aussie-style barbecue and refreshments will further contribute to the relaxed, cross-cultural atmosphere.
Ticket prices are structured to accommodate individuals and families:
- $30 for BritCham or AusCham members
- $35 for non-members
- $60 family package
- $10 for children
The Cricket Day is expected to attract a diverse mix of chamber members, business leaders, and families. While sport provides the focal point, the broader objective is to foster a more connected and collaborative business community in Cambodia.
