The story

Bermuda Smash Invitational in National Sports Centre

The Bermuda Smash Invitational is a Twenty20 cricket tournament at the National Sports Centre in Devonshire, pairing international professional cricketers with dozens of local Bermudian players. Launched in the mid-2020s and rooted in an island cricketing tradition dating to 1884, it compresses matches into a short, high-scoring T20 format, giving visitors and local fans a fast-paced showcase of Bermuda's cricket culture outside the island's bigger annual fixtures.

Bermuda's cricketing history runs back to 1884, when the sport arrived with British garrisons and became one of the island's most fiercely followed local pastimes, producing a cricket culture that punches well above the size of the population.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What distinguishes this tournament is the direct mixing of career professionals with local amateur and semi-professional Bermudian cricketers on the same pitch, a pairing that gives island players real competitive exposure they would not otherwise get

02

The mystery stays covered

Staged at the National Sports Centre, the same ground that has hosted Bermuda's national team in international qualifiers, it carries a level of venue pedigree unusual for a young event

03

The city starts moving

The Twenty20 format also makes it approachable for spectators unfamiliar with cricket's longer traditions, since matches resolve in a few hours with frequent boundaries and a fast scoring pace, while still connecting directly to a cricketing history on the island that predates most of Bermuda's other modern sporting events by more than a century
