CL YOUTH COMPETITIONS - LEAGUE WINNERS 2025 CONFIRMED!

With all scorecards in place and league standings now up to date, Cricket Leinster can today confirm the winners of the respective Youth Competitions Leagues as follows:

The girls competitions were dominated by a small number of clubs - Clontarf won 5/9 leagues (including two on a joint basis), Leinster took home 3 trophies whilst Merrion chipped in with success at Under 13 and Under17 levels.

The Boys & Open competitions were more evenly spread 12 clubs sharing the 19 league titles – Adamstown picking up three (Under 15, Under 17 and Under 19) on the south-side whilst The Hills enjoyed similar success in the North Leinster region.

In aggregate, over 2,000 youth players were registered across the province with significant growth in participation especially evident at newer clubs, some of whom were embracing youth cricket for the first time.

Congratulations to all victorious sides on a brilliant season of Youth Competitions Cricket once again in 2025.
