AWCL

The Alberta Women Cricket League (AWCL) was formed in 2014, ACA became the first association in Canada to start a Women Cricket League. It was formed to create a platform to promote women’s cricket by launching games, tournaments, training camps and networking opportunities. 

In the second year of AWCL’s inception we have been able to form 4 Alberta Teams playing AWCL game series which increased to 6 teams in 2017. Through AWCL, Many women from Alberta have had the opportunity to play for the national Canadian team showcasing their talent and honing their skills. 

AWCL has been instrumental in bringing women’s Cricket to the forefront.
