# 2022 Women's Caribbean Premier League

The 2022 Women's Caribbean Premier League, known for sponsorship reasons as the Massy WCPL 2022, was the inaugural edition of the Women's Caribbean Premier League, a domestic Twenty20 women's cricket tournament played in the West Indies. The tournament took place from 31 August to 4 September 2022, with all matches played in Saint Kitts. The tournament was preceded by a T10 tournament, known as The 6ixty. The tournament was won by Trinbago Knight Riders.

## Background

On 14 March 2022, Cricket West Indies announced their intention to hold the first Women's Caribbean Premier League, to run alongside the men's tournament, which began in 2013. The three teams that would take part in the tournament were announced in March 2022, each aligned with a men's team: Barbados Royals, Guyana Amazon Warriors and Trinbago Knight Riders. On 16 June 2022, the West Indian players playing for each team were confirmed, alongside confirmation that the tournament would take place in Saint Kitts. On 22 June 2022, it was announced that a T10 tournament would precede both the men's and women's tournaments, from 24 to 28 August, known as The 6ixty and involving all of the teams competing in the main tournament. On 16 August 2022, the overseas players playing for each team were confirmed.

## Competition format

The three teams played each other side once, therefore playing two matches apiece. Matches were played using a Twenty20 format. The top two teams in the group advanced to the final.
The league worked on a points system with positions being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:
Win: 2 points. Tie: 1 point. Loss: 0 points. Abandoned/No Result: 1 point.
