Western Cricket Zone

These are the dates for our Tremain-Copeland Cup matches this season.

We've increased the Men's program to two days, with Colts and Under 16s the same as last season, having two 50 over matches and a T20 double header.

We still have some venues to confirm, but you can at least put the dates into your diary.

One of our first teams in action this season is our Colts team.

Congratulations to the 13 players selected to represent Western at the Country Colts carnival, this season being played in Wollongong and the South Coast.

The Country Cricket Calendar for the 2026/27 season has officially been announced.

We’ll be travelling far and wide across our Country regions once again this season as all eight zones go head-to-head across a huge calendar of representative cricket.

A huge thank you to our major sponsors Kookaburra, McDonalds and NSW Government for your continued support towards Country Cricket.

We would also like to thank Tamworth Regional Council, Goulburn Mulwaree Council, Port Macquarie Hastings Council, Armidale Regional Council, Orange City Council - Wiradjuri Country, Kempsey Shire Council and Dubbo Regional Council for your continued contributions and support. Your support helps us continue to provide opportunities for players, officials and volunteers across Country NSW.
