If you are unfamiliar with cricket in Dublin, the jumble of abbreviations, sponsors and league titles can make your introduction a head-scratching experience. Dublin Grass Machinery, The Middle 2 Cup and the YMCA Salver may not mean much now, but with this guide, your pate will soon be itchless.

At Leinster CC, we run 7 men's teams. Each of these teams plays in a league and a cup, with some teams also competing in a 20 over competition, and with the 1sts also having two other competitions. Still with me?

The league has 11 divisions. The top two of which are reserved for the 14 senior club's first teams. The divisions below this hold the junior teams from these clubs, as well as the first teams from numerous smaller clubs.
