We're pleased that your club is considering a visit to Toulouse CC for a tour.
To help you we've put together a comprehensive guide about our club, Toulouse and surrounding areas, and touring in the South-West of France which you can download as a pdf here. Please contact us if you there is anything else you wish to know and we will try and help.
The information below provides an outline of what you may wish to know about the area and may well answer some of your questions. If you have any questions or wish to discuss potential dates then please contact our Fixtures Secretary .
Match Information
Our season runs from early April to end October. We're very flexible and though we normally play Sundays we are happy to try and arrange for Saturdays or evenings if need be.
Check our fixtures/season page for available dates, generally early season is taken up with league games. We're happy to discuss the best format to play, up to 40 overs each, 20/20, and have played a 3-way 20/20 over a day - though hangovers have made this hard work. Matches normally start early afternoon.
There is a match fee of 100€. Match fees include tea and refreshments. On confirmation of your fixture, and to secure your game, the match fees should be forwarded to the Club.
Ground
As you may have seen elsewhere on this site we use a Flicx pitch with a grass outfield. The ground, Stade Sordelo, is about 15 minutes from the centre of Toulouse, and 20 minutes from Toulouse-Blagnac airport. We have changing rooms and showers. Further details can be found elsewhere on this site.
Whites are worn, and please note that as we use a Flicx pitch players are not allowed to wear spikes or studs of any description - dimpled soled shoes are strongly recommended.
