Middlesex County Cricket League
.
Founded in 1972, the Middlesex County Cricket League has in the ensuing 37 seasons made an excellent case for describing itself as THE Premier League in the south of England.
Five times our thoroughbreds have won the National KO Cup: (Hampstead, Southgate, Teddington (2) and Enfield whilst six have fallen at the final hurdle: Ealing (2), Brentham, Finchley and Teddington (2).
The now-defunct Evening Standard Challenge Trophy for senior clubs in and around London gave us the opportunity to show conclusively where the balance of power in the region lay: Finchley (4), Ealing (3), Teddington (3) and Brondesbury (2) all won in the 17 seasons the competition existed whilst a further seven clubs lost in the final.
The League Representative XI has been equally dominant in the Club Cricket Conference Inter League KO, winning a total of 8 finals (including 5 in the past 6 seasons) and succeeding in the inaugural (and, so far, only) National Inter League Challenge – banking sponsors are in short supply at the moment!
The newly created Twenty/20 competition bodes well for the future. Finchley won the Home Counties Challenge Trophy, sponsored by our current sponsors Shepherd Neame, in 2007 and Stanmore went one better last season by reaching the final of the newly-created national competition in Cardiff last season.
Our strength truly comes from the cream of English club cricket as we are the only ECB Premier League to both ban financial inducements to players and limit overseas players to one per team with no current 1st class cricketers allowed (contracted Middlesex and MCC Young Cricketers excepted).
