The Professional Cricketers Association (PCA)

The PCA has been the representative body of past and present first class cricketers in England and Wales, since the organisation was founded in 1967.

In the last three decades, the PCA has continued to develop at a rapid pace and further improvements to our already impressive player services reflect this, but there is still a long way to go.
