Elle is a traditional Sri Lankan sport similar to Baseball. There are 16 players on a side, and they play in single innings. Traditionally Elle has two innings per side, but modern Elle games are limited to 50 ball matches. An Elle field is twice the size of a baseball field. The batter can be struck out with three strikes (as in Basebal), but there is no strike zone. If the batter runs a round nonstop, it is called a run.

Elle at The Royal College was started in 2004 by Viraj Hettiarachchi. In that period, the principal of the College was Mr. Upali Gunasekara. Since then, Royal College has emerged champions in circuit and zonal tournaments many times. Mr. Gunawardhana is the current coach.
