Beginning season 2001, Kanto Cup has been renamed to Kanto Cricket League, which is one of the many initiatives the JCA has taken to streamline the competition structure in Japan. KCL is based on a two division league where the top two teams of the D-II will be promoted to D-I while the bottom two of D-I will be demoted to D-II.

The tournament lasts the whole season as the matches are played only on the weekends. The cricket season in Japan is from April to November.
