Fixtures are available for viewing on the HKCA website by clicking on the above links.

Notes -

The season will start on 7th September 2013 and will go through to the weekend of 26-27 April 2014.

The schedule for 2013-14 is very tight given the loss of the HKU cricket ground and the national team traveling extensively during October, November and January (which limits when Premier League matches can be scheduled).

As a result of the ground situation, it has been necessary to utilise 4 Saturday afternoons (14 SEP, 2 Nov, 12 APR & 26 APR) to play Premier League T20 matches. Saturday Championship and Women's League matches are not impacted by this.

Grounds have been reserved for all junior leagues and the U11, U15 and U17 leagues will all start on the weekend of 21-22 September 2013. The U15 league will start on 6th October. Fixtures will be issued for all junior leagues following a meeting with junior representatives early next week.

The following team names changes should be noted - in the Saturday Championship, CCC is now called CCC Spirits and GLHS is now called CCC Lions. In the Women's League and Women's T20 Cup, CCC Ladies is now called CCC Phoenix.

A meeting of all team captains will be held at the Kowloon Cricket Club on Tuesday, 3rd September 2013 from 7:30PM. Any rule changes will be discussed at this meeting.
