Nigeria Cricket Federation Wins ICC Women’s Team Performance Award

Posted : 07 June 2026

Nigeria’s growing reputation in women’s cricket has received a major boost after the Nigeria Cricket Federation (NCF) emerged as Africa’s regional winner of the International Cricket Council (ICC) Associate Member Women’s Team Performance of the Year Award.

The recognition comes on the back of the impressive performances delivered by Nigeria’s women’s national cricket team during the review period, underlining the rapid progress of the sport in the country.

Beyond its success on the field, Nigeria also earned global recognition through the ICC Criiio Cricket Festivals with Rexona initiative, which was praised for expanding grassroots participation and strengthening community engagement through cricket.

According to the NCF, the initiative has played a significant role in introducing the sport to new audiences while creating memorable experiences for communities across the country.

The federation noted that the twin recognitions reflect the commitment and hard work of players, coaches, administrators, and stakeholders who have continued to drive cricket development in Nigeria.

The NCF added that the honours would serve as further motivation to strengthen grassroots programmes, accelerate talent development, and promote the growth of women’s cricket nationwide.

The award highlights Nigeria’s increasing influence within the global cricket community and reinforces the federation’s efforts to develop the sport at both elite and grassroots levels.
