The Thoroughbreds was the brainchild of a Royalist who joined hands with a Thomian of his vintage and inaugurated the tent in 2010 with the help of other key members of both Schools. The driving force behind Royalist Jehan CanagaRetna and Thomian Amal de Mel launching the tent was that there were difficulties in getting into tents such as the Stallions, Colts and Stables due to the restrictions on the number of new members.

Therefore, in order to ease the problem for Old Boys of both Schools, the Thoroughbreds was formed to accommodate individuals from both Schools, aged 40 years and above.

Since the inception of the tent, the Thoroughbreds has been a trendsetter.

It has been the initiator and introducer of various new and exciting additions to Royal Thomian Tent activity. This has been greatly appreciated by the membership. Today, its 800 plus members, comprising corporate leaders, stewards of industry, and opinion leaders identify the Thoroughbreds as a point of business connections, social engagement and vibrant networking.

In keeping the “Brand” of the Thoroughbreds active throughout the year, the Committee has also organized other events to entertain its membership and friends by organizing an Oktoberfest and a South East Asian Food Festival. This too was another first for a tent at the Royal Thomian.

We also have an active annual social responsibility program that provides purified drinking water to schools in rural Sri Lanka, in a sustainable manner.

To date, the Thoroughbreds have set these sustainable drinking water solutions to schools in Ratnapura, Giribawa and Wilpattu. Finally, the Thoroughbreds have made an annual contribution to both Royal College and St. Thomas College, every year since 2010.

The Thoroughbreds will be celebrating its 10th year anniversary at the 2019 Royal Thomian Cricket encounter. As always, plans are in place to make it a memorable event. Currently, the Committee consists of 16 members, 8 from each School, led by the two Co-Presidents.

We are looking to reach another key milestone in time for the 2019 Royal Thomian Match by building a 3 storied building which will host the Thoroughbreds for the next 25 years.

ASSOCIATION OF

SSC AND THOROUGHBREDS The Association of SSC and Thoroughbreds goes back to the inception of the Thoroughbreds in 2010. While the Thoroughbreds Committee worked primarily with the Royal Thomian Match Organizing Committee in planning details related to the tent’s activities at each match, the Committee also had a great deal of interaction with the SSC’s main Committee and other a officials.

The collaboration of both parties (SSC and Thoroughbreds) enabled us to get our liquor license and the other necessary statutory approvals to run our Thoroughbred Tent each and every year. This was a major accomplishment since there were certain years when a number of tents at the Big Match were unable to secure the necessary liquor licenses.

The SSC Committee has recognized the Thoroughbreds as a highly reputable Tent operator at the Big Match along with being a successful and growing brand and has agreed to team up with the Thoroughbreds to build a 3 storied building with a mezzanine level.
