Cricket is a bat-and-ball team sport where the batting side tries to score as many runs as possible while the bowling side attempts to get batters out, also known as taking wickets, and restrict the flow or runs. The team with the highest number of runs wins a match. Should both teams be unable to complete their number of turns before the time allotted, the match is declared a draw. The bats used in cricket are constructed from high-grade willow and the balls are made of leather stitched onto a cork core.
Brockton Oval Clubhouse opened their athletic fields at Brockton Point Stanley Park in 1891, serving ten different sport groups. In 1889, the Vancouver Cricket Club was officially formed, marking the introduction of cricket to the area. It is said that the British began playing cricket in British Columbia as late as 1850s during their colonization efforts. Cricket continued to be one of the most popular games in Vancouver, attracting crowds of over 200 people at the B.C. Mainland Cricket League games.

The Khalsa Diwan Society is a pioneer Sikh society, one of the oldest in Vancouver, formed on July 22, 1902 in British Columbia, Canada, formally established in 1906. In 1908, the Society purchased and built the first Sikh temple in Vancouver, which was located on West 2nd Avenue. This is believed to be the first Sikh temple in the whole of the American continent. This temple served the Sikh community until a new temple was occupied on April 25, 1970. The original temple was sold to build a bigger (present) temple located on Ross Street. The Khalsa Diwan Society has been a pioneer in raising Sikhi related issues and getting recognition for Sikhs in Canada. It continues to build a strong community based on Sikhi values and principles. Every year the society organizes sports activities, including soccer and wrestling tournaments.
