  3. WOMEN'S COMPETITIONS STRUCTURE FOR THE 2023 SEASON
2nd February 2023 by Cricket Leinster

WOMEN'S COMPETITIONS STRUCTURE FOR THE 2023 SEASON

The Cricket Leinster Women’s Committee is delighted to announce the structures for the 2023 Season.

Once again we are delighted that all our league and cup competitions will be sponsored by Sprint Coatings Ltd, with thanks to Alan Maginnis in particular for this ongoing support. This support greatly assists the women’s committee in delivering on our expansion plans and is especially welcome during these challenging times

For the 2023 season the number of competing teams rises to 33. In particular we are delighted to welcome Adamstown who will play a full season and a second team from Balbriggan.

This continued expansion is a testament to the development work by the Cricket Leinster development staff and by club coaches. The broad focussed development programmes that support women’s cricket are unrivalled in their success in terms of increasing participation and retaining female players in the game.

League Competitions

There will be four leagues again in 2023, retaining the expansion from 2020. Each league will be played in the T20 format with centrally made fixtures for Division 1.
