Since 1998, it is the feeder league for the North and Midlands of the country into the Scottish National Cricket League until 2011, when the SNCL, after little over a decade of existence, became called the CSL (Cricket Scotland League). Its one of four regional feeder leagues. The Strathmore Union was formed in 1928[1] and the Perthshire League was formed in 1963. The two merged in 2004.[2]

In the late 1990s the Union had a representative team in the Regional League Championship, which pitted the best players in each league against each other.[3] The SPCU has fielded a representative XI, notably as part of one of its founder members, Arbroath United's 125th anniversary year.[4]
