history

Boland was only admitted to the highest cricket level in South Africa in 1980 and played there mostly in the lower division. The only success came in the 1999/2000 season in the One-Day Cup . In the 2003/04 season, the provincial teams were merged and Boland formed the Cape Cobras together with Western Province. In the following years, the team managed to win the List A competition of the now semi-professional provincial teams.
