Our History
The Queensland Premier Cricket competition began in October 1897 at Brisbane Showgrounds, with 7 Premier Clubs competing. Founded under the name Brisbane Electorate Cricket, the competition was later known as Brisbane Grade Cricket, but is now referred to as Queensland Premier Cricket to reflect its status as Queensland’s leading cricket performance pathway. There are 12 Premier Clubs from South East Queensland which comprise 11 competitions. South Brisbane, Valley [formerly Fortitude Valley], Toombul, & Redlands [formerly Woolloongabba] are the 4 remaining Foundation Premier Clubs that compete in today’s competition.
