Washington Metro Cricket League (WMCL) was founded to serve as the home for hard-tennis ball cricket in the Washington DC metropolitan area. WMCL is focused on promoting the game of cricket in the Washington DC area by organizing semi-annual tournaments every year. The league continues to work closely with Fairfax County to raise awareness of the game by hosting matches at various venues within Northern Virginia. Now operating with 32 teams across multiple divisions, and over 600 active players participating in its tournaments, WMCL is a quickly growing league that is re-kindling the passion of cricket in the community.
