# 2019 Surrey Stars season

The 2019 season was Surrey Stars' fourth and final season, in which they competed in the final edition of the Women's Cricket Super League, a Twenty20 competition. The side finished fifth in the group stage, winning three of their ten matches.
The side was captained by Nat Sciver and coached by Richard Bedbrook. They played four home matches at Woodbridge Road, Guildford and one at The Oval. Following the season, women's domestic cricket in England was reformed, with the creation of new "regional hubs", with Surrey Stars replaced by South East Stars, which retained some elements of the original team but represent a larger area.
