The Everards Leicestershire and Rutland Cricket League (Leicestershire Cricket League until 2014)[1] is the top level of competition for the amateur, recreational game of club cricket in Leicestershire and Rutland, England, and since 2002 has been a designated an ECB Premier League. The League headquarters is based in the Harborough District village of Thorpe Langton, Leicestershire.[2]
In 2018 Uppingham Town became the first team from Rutland to take part in the Premier Division, with Oakham arriving in 2020.[3] However, the 2020 competition was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. A replacement competition was organised for the later part of the season when cricket again became possible, but with the winners not to be regarded as official league champions.
