From hosting the first tour by an English cricket team in 1869 to drawing up the first rules for Victorian (now Australian) football, the MCC has a proud and storied history.
Today, the MCC is Australia’s oldest and largest sporting club with 150,000 members with a further 188,000 on the waiting list. The MCC has hundreds of participants across 14 sports and a library with the biggest collection of sporting publications in the world.
The MCC’s principal public role, however, remains the progressive management and development of one of this country’s greatest assets – the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The iconic stadium attracts more than 3 million visitors annually from all around the world for live sport and entertainment, a visit to the Australian Sports Museum or an MCG Tour.

Applications for the MCC 2026 work experience program are now open. Applications close on February 13, 2026.
To apply online, students must complete a short questionnaire, including availability to attend an interview day, and submit a cover letter outlining:

Please note that all work experience placements for the year will be selected through this process.
