Cricket Ireland is the national governing body for the sport of cricket in Ireland. It is responsible for setting the strategic direction and the national administration of cricket on the island of Ireland. Cricket Ireland (also known as “The Irish Cricket Union”) was established in 1923. On 22 June 2017 the ICC announced that Ireland had been granted Full Membership status and had become a fully-fledged Test Match playing nation. This granted Ireland Test status and allowed the organisation to join the ICC Future Tours Programme. Cricket Ireland is directly responsible for the international men's and women's squads, and the performance pathway structures in both systems. It also runs the men's inter-provincial and first-class competition, the women's Super Series, and three national club cricket cup competitions. Cricket Ireland works closely with the provincial unions - Cricket Leinster, Northern Cricket Union, North West Cricket Union and Munster Cricket - in delivering national programmes and supporting grassroots initiatives across Ireland.
