Across Yorkshire, there is a range of women’s and girls’ cricket leagues offering opportunities for players of all ages, abilities, and interests.
Whether you’re stepping onto the pitch for the first time or looking for regular match play, there is a league to suit you. With Women and Girls options, softball and hardball pathways and a strong community spirit, these leagues are designed to help players build confidence, develop skills, and enjoy the game in a supportive environment.
All leagues are run and governed by local league committees and cricket organisations, with the Yorkshire Cricket Foundation (YCF) acting in a supportive and advisory role to promote growth and sustainability across the women’s and girls’ game.
Whether you are a player, parent, coach or club looking to enter a team, we are here to help point you in the right direction. Visit our Get in Touch page to connect with our Women & Girls team or find a league near you.
Girls Cricket
Roses Cricket, powered by Dynamos
An exciting new cricket programme for girls aged 8–11 across Yorkshire. Roses Cricket, powered by Dynamos, is a fun, inclusive and girls-only cricket initiative designed to inspire the next generation of players. This brand-new programme is perfect for those new to cricket or looking to play in a supportive, female-focused environment.
Why Choose Roses Cricket?
Roses Cricket is all about creating more opportunities for girls to enjoy cricket. The programme provides clubs with the tools, structure, and support to recruit and retain young female players — helping build a stronger, more inclusive future for the game.
Whether girls are picking up a bat for the first time or already love the sport, Roses Cricket offers a great introduction to team play, new skills, and having fun with friends.
Roses Leagues
To continue the momentum, clubs can enter Roses Leagues — an informal, short-format league running at the end of the season. It’s designed to keep girls engaged, give them more game time, and offer a glimpse into what their next season of cricket might look like.
Leagues will be made up of local teams (minimum of 3 per group, depending on entries). YCB staff and League Chairs will share updates and schedules directly with participating clubs.
