History

Leicestershire Women played their first recorded match in 1948, against Buckinghamshire Women.[5] They also played a match against a touring Australia side in 1951, as a combined team with Buckinghamshire.[6] Leicestershire joined the national women's cricket structure in 2004, competing in the County Challenge Cup, the lower tier of the Women's County Championship: they finished bottom of their group in their first season.[7] After this, Leicestershire remained in the lower levels of the Championship. They won their Division 5 group two years in a row, in 2010 and 2011, and after this have mainly played in Division Three.[8] They did gain promotion from Division Three in 2015, coming second, but were relegated the following season.[9]

In the Women's Twenty20 Cup, Leicestershire have had some successful seasons in the lower divisions of the competition: for example, they went unbeaten in 2015 and 2016.[10][11] Between 2017 and 2019, they played in Division Three.[12] In 2021, they competed in the East Midlands Group of the Twenty20 Cup, finishing 5th with 2 victories.[13] In 2022 they finished third in Group 5 of the Twenty20 Cup, before beating Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire on Finals Day to win their group.[14] They also joined the East of England Women's County Championship in 2022, finishing third out of seven in their first season.[15] In 2023, all of their group stage matches were rained-off in the Twenty20 Cup, but they lost in the semi-final on the group Finals Day.[16] They won the East of England Women's County Championship that season, going unbeaten to top the table.[17]
