Open Competitions for 2026

There has been a restructuring of league competitions by Cricket Leinster over the winter and next year Merrion will have teams in Divisions more suited to its current underlying strength.

The teams in the Open Competitions, with the exception of the 2nd XI who won the Premier II league, fared poorly in 2025, with four of the six teams ending in the relegation zone. Merrion still ended up the highest ranked club in Leinster in terms of the league positions of its top three and five teams but this was based on past successes.

A breakdown of the Divisions that Merrion teams competed over the past few years [excluding Covid] are are set out below.
