The aim of these Inter Cricket Indoor Competitions is to provide young girls with an opportunity to play Indoor Cricket, hasten their progress to the standard game and to encourage fair participation by all.

6 teams will progress to the County Finals to be held at Lancashire CCC, Indoor Cricket Centre, Old Trafford at a date TBC.
The Lancashire Cricket Board has again placed the development of girls’ cricket in Secondary Schools as a high priority, this competition is all about raising the profile of girls’ cricket across the county within our schools.
It will also give teachers the opportunity to meet their Cricket Development Managers (CDMs) and in some cases Community Cricket Development Coaches. They will be able to offer advice and support to schools on topics ranging from coaching in schools, competitions, resources, equipment, grant aid and tickets to Lancashire County Cricket Club matches.
