The Home Counties Premier Cricket League[1] is the top level of competition for recreational club cricket in the Home Counties of England, and has been a designated ECB Premier League.[2] since its founding in 2000. It originally served Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Oxfordshire, although there are at present no Bedfordshire clubs in the league and all but one of the Hertfordshire clubs withdrew after the 2013 season.
Until 2013 the league consisted of a Division One of ten clubs and a Division Two (East) and a Division Two (West), each of ten clubs, with promotion between Divisions and to and from the feeder leagues. With the withdrawal of the Hertfordshire clubs, the structure was simplified and there is now just Division One and Division Two.
The Division One teams for 2018 are: Aston Rowant, Banbury, Finchampstead, Henley, High Wycombe, Horspath, Oxford, Slough, Thame Town, and Tring Park.
There are two feeder leagues, covering narrower areas within the region:
Cherwell Cricket League - Primarily Oxfordshire, but also with clubs from Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, and Northamptonshire. In the past there have also been clubs from Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. [3]
Thames Valley Cricket League - A wide area to the west of London. Most clubs have traditionally been from Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, but there are also clubs from Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Middlesex, Oxfordshire, and Surrey.
With the exception of Tring Park who have remained in the Home Counties Premier Cricket League, the Hertfordshire clubs now take part in the Hertfordshire Cricket League.
