History
Boland Women first appeared in the 1997–98 season of the Caltrate Inter-Provincial Tournament, although the full results for the tournament are unrecorded.[2] They have competed in every season of the tournament since.[1] Boland have won the tournament twice, in 2003–04 and 2007–08. In 2003–04, they beat Eastern Province in the final by 107 runs, whilst in 2007–08 they won the title by going unbeaten to top the Super Six section of the tournament.[3][4] The side also finished as runners-up in the tournament three times in four seasons, in 2005–05, 2006–07 and 2008–09.[5][6][7]
Boland have also competed in the CSA Women's Provincial T20 Competition since its inception in the 2012–13 season.[1] They won the second edition of the tournament, in 2013–14, beating Northerns in the final after bowling them out for just 32 in the first innings.[8][9]
