The Friends Provident Trophy is a one-day cricket competition in the United Kingdom. The 2009 final was won by Hampshire. It is one of the four tournaments in which the eighteen first-class counties compete each season. They are joined by teams from Scotland and Ireland. The competition has previously been known as the C&G Trophy (2000-2006), the NatWest Trophy (1981-2000) and the Gillette Cup (1963-1980). For a short period following the 2006 season, the competition was known as the ECB Trophy because no sponsors were forthcoming when Cheltenham and Gloucester decided to end their association with the competition after the 2006 season.
