With the exception of 1980–81, they subsequently competed in every Australian Women's Cricket Championships up to and including its penultimate season in 1994–95. Their best finish came in 1992–93, when they drew the third-place playoff with Western Australia but secured third place based on first innings score.

Australian Capital Territory joined the Australian Women's Twenty20 Cup and the WNCL in 2009–10, finishing a respectable third in both competitions.

Australian Capital Territory finished fourth in the 2013–14 Twenty20 Cup and qualified for the semi-finals, where they met New South Wales. Australian Capital Territory won the match by 12 runs thanks to six wickets from Rhiannon Dick. However, they lost the final to Queensland by seven wickets after scoring only 107 batting first.
