Cumbria Women's first recorded match was against
Scotland Women in 2000, which they lost by 10 wickets. The
following year, Cumbria joined the Emerging Counties competition, which acted as a feeder competition for the
Women's County Championship, in which they competed for three seasons before joining its successor, the County Challenge Cup. Since then, in the Challenge Cup and when they joined the County Championship proper in
2008, Cumbria Women have remained in the bottom tier of competition. They also joined the
Women's Twenty20 Cup for its inaugural year in
2009, and again have been consistently in the lowest division. They achieved one of their best finishes in
2019, finishing 2nd in Division 3C with 3 victories. In
2021, they competed in the North Group of the Twenty20 Cup, finishing bottom with no victories. They again finished bottom of their group in the
2022 and
2023 Twenty20 Cups. In 2024, the side finished 7th in their group in the
Twenty20 Cup. ==Players==
