# 2025 Women's T20 Blast

The 2025 Women's T20 Blast (also known as 2025 Women's Vitality Blast for sponsorship reasons) will be the inaugural season of the Women's T20 Blast, a professional Twenty20 cricket league that will be played in England. The tournament will begin from 29 May to 27 July 2025 with local teams taking part.
The tournament will run alongside the 2025 T20 Blast.

## Format

The tournament will be split into two categories: one contested by the eight counties in League One and the second featuring the 10 remaining teams split into two groups in League Two.

## Teams

Eight teams from League One will compete in the inaugural season: the Birmingham Bears, Durham, Essex Eagles, Hampshire Hawks, Lancashire Thunder, Somerset, Surrey and The Blaze (Nottinghamshire). Glamorgan and Yorkshire Vikings will be awarded tier-one status and join the league in 2027, while a further two clubs will be awarded tier-one status in 2029.
The remaining ten teams will compete in League Two in which each county plays eight group-stage matches (home-and-away) against the other four counties in their group. The top two teams from each group will progress to Finals Day. The teams are divided into the following groups:
| North Group | South Group |
| Derbyshire Falcons Leicestershire Foxes Northants Steelbacks Worcestershire Rapids Yorkshire Vikings | Glamorgan Gloucestershire Kent Spitfires Middlesex Sussex Sharks |
