Entry into the ECB National Club Championship for next season is now
open and below is some information relating to the competition for 2024.
This has already been shared with the clubs that entered the competition
in 2023. This is open to all First XI teams irrespective of which league
they play in. There is no automatic entry into the competition based on
league finishing position in 2023 so all clubs that wish to enter must
complete the entry form and make the entry fee payment.

The National Club Championship in 2023 saw a thrilling Final with
Cuckney CC from Nottinghamshire beating Bexley CC from Kent by wickets
lost after the scores were tied at Lord's -

final in September. Depending on the number of entries, it may be
necessary to have one or two Preliminary Rounds at the start of the
competition with some clubs receiving a bye into the First Round (which
will be based on number of entries, which league you play in and how far
you got in the competition in 2023).
