Minor Counties Cricket Championship
Encyclopedia
The Minor Counties Cricket Championship is a season-long competition in England that is contested by those county cricket clubs that do not have first-class
status. The competition began in 1895 and, apart from the two World War periods, has been contested annually ever since.
Four clubs which used to play in the Minor Counties Championship have been granted first-class status – Worcestershire
in 1899; Northamptonshire
in 1905; Glamorgan
in 1921 and Durham
in 1992.
Until 1959, when the Second XI Championship
was founded, most second XIs of the first-class counties used to contest the Minor Counties. A few continued to do so and the last to withdraw was Somerset
2nd XI after the 1987 season.
Since 1983, the clubs have been split into an Eastern and a Western Division. The winners of the two divisions play each other in a match at the end of the season to determine which will be the Champions.
At present, there are twenty clubs involved. Nineteen represent English counties and the other is a Wales team that represents all the Welsh counties except Glamorgan. For details, see Minor counties of English cricket
