The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) was formed in November 1838. Throughout its history, the MCC has seen success – as both a Club and through individual players.
The MCC was an inaugural member club in the Cricket Victoria Premier Cricket competition (formerly VCA District Cricket), however did not initially accept the residential qualification rules and was not permitted to compete for the premiership until the 1914/15 season.
The MCC introduced women’s teams for the first time in season 2012/13, entering two sides into Victorian Premier Cricket. A third women's team was added in 2015.
