The Hundred 2026: Exploring Combined Team Competitions
The Hundred will present the Helix trophy to the leading combined team from men's and women's competitions for the first time this weekend.
This trophy, named by fans, will be awarded to the team with the highest points accumulated since the competitions began in 2021. Trent Rockets have secured their position to win the 2026 Helix trophy by qualifying for both finals, currently holding 60 points, which is 16 points ahead of Sunrisers Leeds.
The introduction of this combined award has sparked interest in how other sports might fare under similar criteria. For instance, Arsenal would lead a combined Premier League and Women's Super League table despite Manchester City's Women's Super League victory. In rugby, France tops the combined Six Nations table, while in golf, the US narrowly leads over Europe based on recent competitions.
