Our History

The Queensland Premier Cricket competition began in October 1897 at Brisbane Showgrounds, with 7 Premier Clubs competing. Founded under the name Brisbane Electorate Cricket, the competition was later known as Brisbane Grade Cricket, but is now referred to as Queensland Premier Cricket to reflect its status as Queensland’s leading cricket performance pathway. There are 12 Premier Clubs from South East Queensland which comprise 11 competitions. South Brisbane, Valley [formerly Fortitude Valley], Toombul, & Redlands [formerly Woolloongabba] are the 4 remaining Foundation Premier Clubs that compete in today’s competition.

Queensland Cricket's indigenous artwork was collaboratively designed by Queensland Fire player and proud Kunja woman Mikayla Hinkley and Brisbane Indigenous artist, Delores McDonald (“Aunty Delly”).

The centre circle represents the Gabba, alongside other water holes which used to be near the ground. 87 black strokes on red earth represent the wickets taken by Aboriginal great, Eddie Gilbert who played 23 games for Queensland.
