Manchester and District Cricket Association

The Manchester and District Cricket Association (MDCA) is an English cricket association which contains 17 teams spread around the Greater Manchester area. Founded in 1892, it supports two leagues for teams playing First XI cricket, two for Second XI cricket and a single league for Third XI teams; not all teams have a Third XI, which accounts for this difference.
