† Won by 2nd XI
North Down have won the Senior League 22 times, sharing it with Waringstown Cricket Club in 2005 and with Cliftonville Cricket Club in 1896, the latter a fact strangely omitted from the NCU records; the Senior Challenge Cup 31 times, including an historic tied match against Lisburn Cricket Club in 1994. The Bob Kerr Irish Senior Cup has been won 3 times and the Ulster Cup twice. Since 1999, 6 Senior League wins (one shared), 6 Senior Challenge Cup wins and an Ulster Cup victory have made it one of the most successful periods in the club's history.
In 2007, ONE SHOT MORE... FOR THE HONOUR OF DOWN, a history of North Down Cricket Club at the end its 150th anniversary, written by Ian Shields, was published. It was particularly appropriate that the Senior League and Cup double were won in this anniversary year.
