Derbyshire, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, Kent, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Middlesex, Sussex, Worcestershire, Yorkshire in next level from 2025
Derbyshire, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, Kent, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Middlesex, Sussex, Worcestershire and Yorkshire may form the next level of the new home women's events in England and Wales from next time.
The ten Level 2 districts will perform 50-over and 20-over cricket, with information of the opposition structure and routine for 2025 yet to be announced. All National Counties who wish to take part in the fresh competitions at that stage starting in 2025 may receive Tier 3 position.
With all three levels to remain closed from between the 2025 and 2028 months, with no advertising or fall, the ECB also announced on Thursday a knock-out glass opposition consisting of teams from all three tiers, giving all counties a chance to compete against each other. The three-tiered architecture may be established in 2025, along with the start of the glass competition.
Earlier this year, the ECB announced that Durham, Essex, Surrey, Hampshire, Lancashire, Nottinghamshire, Somerset and Warwickshire may enjoy in Tier 1 of the new events starting in 2025. Yorkshire may be a Level 1 Team for the 2026 time, subject to meeting a series of problems, and Glamorgan will add Tier 1 in 2027. The ECB also aims to develop Tier 1 to 12 clubs by 2029.
Beth Barrett-Wild, director of the children's professional sport, said:" It's interesting to see the three layers finalised. It brings the introduction of local female professional cricket one action closer. Up to 39 counties will compete across the new framework starting next summer, which will allow for the expansion and increase the level of the children's skilled activity both on and off the industry.
" We should n't underestimate how great this step is for children's cricket and indeed the entire game, a growing and sustainable children's domestic pyramid underneath the Hundred and England Women, with more professional women people, increased funding, and enhanced position across the men's and women's activity, is a huge step forward for cricket."
By 2027, according to the plans, £8 million in new funding will be invested annually in women's domestic cricket, which would increase investment by about £19 million annually.
