History
France has a history with the game. There is documented evidence of games in France as early as 1864. By the end of the 19th century, there were about 12 club teams in France. France participated in the only Olympic Games in Paris in 1900 that had cricket and won the silver medal (although many of the players were English expatriates).[1]
