Major League Cricket (MLC)

Major League Cricket is the professional T20 competition in the United States. Its first season was played in 2023, with Grand Prairie Stadium near Dallas as a main venue. Its teams have included franchises representing Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Texas and Washington.

Minor League Cricket

Minor League Cricket is a national T20 competition below MLC, with teams in many regions. It gives club and emerging players a pathway towards the professional game.

Community and club leagues

Most US cricketers play in community leagues: weekend T20 and longer-format competitions run by local associations. Large cricket communities exist in:

  • New Jersey and New York, with long-established clubs and busy weekend leagues;
  • Texas, especially around Dallas, Houston and Austin;
  • California, in the Bay Area and Los Angeles;
  • Florida, particularly South Florida;
  • Illinois, around Chicago;

along with growing scenes in Georgia, Washington, Virginia, Maryland and North Carolina.

Corporate cricket

Tech and corporate cricket leagues are popular, especially in California, Texas and New Jersey. Corporate teams often want bold, modern kits with company branding.

What US teams need for kit

  • Coloured T20 kits: sublimated shirts and trousers in team colours.
  • Whites: for leagues that play longer formats.
  • Training wear and hoodies: for nets and cooler evenings.
  • US sizing: and plenty of larger sizes.

Find kits for your state: New Jersey, Texas, New York, California, Florida and Illinois, or see custom cricket uniforms USA.
