Shropshire Premier Cricket League
- Shropshire Premier Cricket League
The Shropshire Premier Cricket League is the highest level club cricket competition in Shropshire. It is one step above the Shropshire Cricket League, and acts as a feeder league to the Birmingham and District Premier League, which is at the top of the English club cricket pyramid.
The league is sponsored by the brewery company Marstons and is made up of 12 clubs, whose 1st and 2nd XIs play each other twice, home and away, over the course of a league season. The 1st XI winners of the league (along with their 2nd XI) are usually promoted to the Birmingham and District Premier League.
In 2007, the league was won by Oswestry Cricket Club.
