The Westerland County Cricket Association is the sports governing body for the game of cricket for Westerland county in New Ingrea. Formed in 1878 it is responsible for the administration of the county men's and women's representative teams, and the the running of district, sub-district, and junior competitions.

The administrative role of the association also stretches to numerous other roles that ensure the successful day-to-day business and promotion of the game of cricket in the county. This includes player registration and clearances, judicial decisions and appeals, and accreditation of support staff and press reporters. The Association also oversees the local developmental, coaching, and umpiring bodies on behalf of the NICB, with whom it is affiliated. The headquarters of the Association can be found at Arthur V Oval, Earnestvale.

History

The Association was formed in 1878, although a representative team had been playing in the County Championship since it was formed in 1870/71. Regular district competition commenced in 1900, with six teams competing from around the Earnetvale area. Today it remains the most "local" of the various district competitions, with all clubs hailing from the central parts of the county.
