When does league cricket start?

posted by John Winn

Traditionally most leagues in Yorkshire start on the third Saturday in April which this year falls on the 16th. Conforming to this tradition in 2016 are the following:

Aire-Wharfe, Wetherby, NYSD,* Darlington and District, Yorkshire Premier, York, Bradford, Huddersfield, Craven, Nidderdale, South Yorkshire ** Pontefract


*NYSD Sunday League starts April 10th
** There is one match on Saturday 9th Shiregreen III v Frecheville II

And elsewhere North East Premier and Greater Manchester also start on April 16th

April 23rd Langbaurgh (Second Division only), York Vale, Dales Council, Bradford Sunday School,

April 24th Scarborough Beckett (Premier only) and then Saturday 30th, Huddersfield Central, Pennine League

There is one game in the Durham Cricket League on April 23rd Philadelphia II v Crook II with a full programme the following Saturday.

Please check before you travel.

There are some interesting preseason friendlies before league programmes start and we will try to bring you a list of these in the April fixtures.
