Women's Cricket at Burnley Cricket Club
2024
The 2024 season was a rough one weather wise, lots of cancelled games for all teams. This was the same for the ladies of BCC.
Even with the rough weather our ladies team were able to secure victory in the Super 8’s league.
One of our ladies also had success with the Lancashire 50 over game and T20 County Cup. Congratulations Holly.
2023
Our ladies team have had a long run to the weekends games going way back to the start of the summer.
The LCF Cup quarter final game took place in July at Ramsbottom where the ladies won by one run on the last ball of the T20 game. Ramsbottom put up a good fight and and made it a very tight game.
SEMI FINAL saw the ladies head to Sefton Park in August. Weather wasn’t great that morning but the mood was high. They came second in this cup last year and are fighting to go one better in 2023.
After batting first and putting on a score of 118, they were out to defend in the field. They managed to limit Sefton Park to 114, and this put the ladies into the final.
THE FINAL - took place on Sunday 3rd September at Northern CC, vs Blackpool CC and they did us proud, winning the LCF CUP!! Well done Ladies
