North West of Ireland Cricket Union


The North West of Ireland Cricket Union, often referred to as the North West Cricket Union, is one of five provincial governing bodies in Ireland. Along with the Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Northern unions, it makes up the Irish Cricket Union, the supreme governing body of Irish cricket.
The North West jurisdiction covers counties Fermanagh and Londonderry and part of Tyrone in Northern Ireland and Donegal in the Republic of Ireland. The Union organises the North West Senior Cup and the North West Senior League.
The Union was formed as the County Derry Cricket Union in 1890, changing to the current name in 1907 to reflect the wider geographical basis of its membership. In 2015, there were 23 clubs fielding 51 teams affiliated to the union. There are 6 divisions: two senior leagues- premiership and a championship, along with 4 Qualifying leagues.
