His passion, however, was cricket, and having researched the local clubs, he arrived at BHCC at the end of the 2014 season.Shuk turned up at the club speaking very little English, though he was able to make his point quite clearly, said Michael Barker, the clubs second-team captain. He loved cricket and wanted to play and we welcomed him with open arms.Shuk joined the Under 15s colts side in 2015, and went on to be selected for The Bexley District Academy. Educationally he managed to pass five GCSEs this year, including a C in English Language, the result of many hours spent learning in the local library.However, he recently failed in an application to remain in the UK and is now on his final appeal to stay in the country.All of us down at The Heath are desperate to have Shuk stay in his new home here in the UK, added Barker.
