General and Recreational Conduct Regulations

The ECB launched a new Anti-Discrimination Code of Conduct ahead of the 2021 season. The Code ensured that any incidence of discrimination in the professional game and in recreational leagues and clubs that fell under the ECB’s jurisdiction could be subject to disciplinary processes and sanctions.

The implementation of the Anti-Discrimination Code of Conduct built on the work the ECB has undertaken to tackle discrimination and promote greater inclusion and diversity across the game. 

For 2025 onwards, the Anti-Discrimination Code has been reframed as the Anti-Discrimination Regulations to reflect its mandatory application to everyone in the game. The Anti-Discrimination Regulations, and accompanying guidance, can be found below. 

If you have experienced discrimination in a cricketing environment, you can report it to the Cricket Regulator here.
