This includes indoor leagues, softball cricket, a knockout Hundred Ball competition, and hardball leagues. Our aim is to create a supportive environment where women can enjoy the game, develop their skills, and connect with other players, whether they are playing competitively or recreationally.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"566\" data-end=\"984\">For those seeking the most competitive hardball cricket in the county, we partner with the West Midlands Women\u2019s League. The league is split into three divisions: Premier (often referred to as the \u201cBirmingham League\u201d of women\u2019s club cricket), Division 1, and Division 2. It features the most experienced female hardball cricketers from the region, with Warwickshire pathway players forming the majority of teams.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"566\" data-end=\"984\"><strong>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/heyzine.com\/flip-book\/eefb78f4d3.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> to view our 2026 women\u2019s\u00a0playing offers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t                    \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section  class=\"section section--padding-xs section--grey section--stats\">\n\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grid justify-center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-3 col-sm-4 col-xs-6\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat stat--turquoise\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"stat__number\">50<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"stat__text\">Clubs providing a women&#8217;s or girl&#8217;s team<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-3 col-sm-4 col-xs-6\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat stat--lighter-blue\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"stat__number\">20<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"stat__text\">Softball festivals hosted across summer 2025<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-3 col-sm-4 col-xs-6\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat stat--turquoise\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"stat__number\">50<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"stat__text\">Girls regularly attending the Development Centre cricket programme<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section  class=\"section section--padding-xs section--link-grid\">\n\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t        <div class=\"grid grid--links \">\n                                    <div class=\"col-md-3 col-sm-6\">\n\t            <a href=\"https:\/\/edgbaston.com\/foundation\/indoor-leagues\/\" class=\"page-link page-link--sm\"\n\t               style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/edgbaston.com\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Indoor-League-Finals.png)\" >\n\t            <h2 class=\"page-link__title\">\n                        Indoor Leagues                    <\/h2>\n                    <div class=\"page-link__excerpt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Throughout the winter, we organise competitive indoor leagues that are open to all clubs and hubs.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"col-md-3 col-sm-6\">\n\t            <a href=\"https:\/\/edgbaston.com\/foundation\/womens-softball-cricket\/\" class=\"page-link page-link--sm\"\n\t               style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/edgbaston.com\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Girls-Softball-1624x900-1.jpg)\" >\n\t            <h2 class=\"page-link__title\">\n                        Softball Cricket                    <\/h2>\n                    <div class=\"page-link__excerpt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Don\u2019t miss out on our upcoming womens\u2019 softball cricket festivals.
