The team was formed ahead of the 2020 season, with Durham and Northumberland deciding to merge at both youth and senior levels in order to provide a "united high performance pathway" for the region.[3] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they did not take part in any formal competitions in 2020, only playing friendlies, but in 2021 they competed in the Women's Twenty20 Cup, finishing 5th with one win.[4][5] They also contributed some players to the North Representative XI, and they are partnered with the regional team Northern Diamonds.[6][4]
