Empowering Women. Discovering Talent. Growing the Future of Tapeball Cricket.
TAPEBALL FOR HER CHAMPIONSHIP 2026/27
Organised by SKY Cricket Sri Lanka
Every girl deserves an opportunity. Every talent deserves a platform.
Somewhere in Sri Lanka, there is a girl dreaming of becoming a cricketer. She has the passion, the talent and the determination, but perhaps she has never had the opportunity to demonstrate what she can do.
For many talented girls and young women, particularly those living outside Colombo, access to sporting opportunities, exposure and competitive platforms remains limited.
We believe their dreams should not be restricted by where they come from or the opportunities available to them.
We believe talent exists everywhere. Opportunity must reach everywhere.
OUR MISSION
SKY Cricket Sri Lanka is launching the Tapeball For Her Championship 2026/27, an initiative designed to promote Women's Tapeball Cricket, empower emerging female talent and create new opportunities for girls and women through sport.
Tapeball Cricket is an affordable, accessible and exciting format that encourages participation while developing essential cricketing skills. It can also serve as a grassroots platform to identify and nurture talented players who may progress towards elite-level hardball cricket.
Our vision goes beyond one championship. We want to help establish Women's Tapeball Cricket as a recognised and popular sporting opportunity in Sri Lanka.
THE CHAMPIONSHIP
10 Franchise Teams. 140 Female Players. 23 Competitive Matches. One Powerful Mission.
The championship will provide,
Opportunities for undiscovered and emerging female talent.
A competitive platform for girls from communities outside Colombo.
Greater visibility and recognition for talented players.
Confidence, teamwork and sporting development.
A grassroots pathway for identifying future cricketing talent.
A stronger foundation for the growth of Women's Tapeball Cricket.
A significant number of registered players come from areas outside Colombo. Their participation reminds us that exceptional talent is not limited to major cities or established sporting centres.
These girls deserve to be seen. They deserve to be supported. Most importantly, they deserve a chance.
