Indoor Cricket Season 26-27
Team entries for the Indoor Cricket 2026-27 are now open on BUCS Play. This means Institution Administrators (IAs) will now be able to enter all their teams and set captains for the upcoming season.
Guidance on how to enter teams can be found here.
Please note, as the 2025-26 BUCS season is still in progress, IAs must select ’26-27’ from the season dropdown box to correctly enter teams for next season. This is detailed in the help guides linked above.
If you encounter any issues while entering teams, please email the BUCS Play Support Team with details and screenshots of the issue if applicable. Please ensure this email is sent before the closing of the team entry window to avoid missing out.

Rules & Regulations:
The BUCS Indoor Cricket regulations for the 2025-26 season are now live here.
We would also like to remind teams of ICR 4.1 regarding team selection and team sheets. ICR 4.1 applies REG 11.1 and REG 11.2 to the Indoor Cricket Championships, with key points to be aware of being the requirement to complete team sheets for all fixtures and for institutions with multiple teams entered, the normality regulations (REG 11.1.2.2) and that an individual is not permitted to compete for multiple teams on the same day (REG 11.1.2.1). As per ICR 14, the aim is that any issues relating to these will be resolved on the day, but if they can’t be, there are mechanisms in REG 11 through which they can be reported to BUCS.
