Women's and Girls' Cricket in Wales
Girls Cricket Webinar 2025
We have over 100 clubs who have a women's and/or girls' section running across Wales in 2024.
In 2025 we have 20 teams playing within our Women's hardball league, 6 teams in our Premier Division, 6 teams in our Division 1 and 8 teams within our Division 2 and 88 teams involved in the women's softball league split across 12 divisions
With more girls playing cricket than ever before in Wales - we continue to have lots of opportunities for girls across each region including Girls only Dynamos sessions, Girls club teams at U10,U12, U14 & U16 plus a structured pathway programme for girls to aspire to be involved in as well as the opportunity to represent Glamorgan at County Age Group level and beyond. With the introduction of the tiered structure within the women's professional game there has never been a better time to be involved.
