The PCA is Philippines's representative at the International Cricket Council and is an affiliate member and has been a member of that body since 2003. It is also a member of the East Asia-Pacific Cricket Council. The PCA is a member of the Philippine Olympic Committee since June 2018. HistoryThe history of cricket in the Philippines dates back as early as 1914 when the Nomads Sports Club was established where the sports was first played in the country.[2] The Philippine Cricket Association (PCA) itself was established by the 1970s. Prior to the 1997 Asian financial crisis, the PCA organized a stable cricket league which is composed of mostly expatriate members.[3] In 2000, there were only two regular clubs in the PCA-organized league. Cricketers in the league at that time are mostly expatriates coming from Australia, Britain, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa and Zimbabwe while some are foreigners with Filipino heritage.[3] The PCA attained affiliate membership in 2003.[2] In the same year there were only 45 recorded senior players.[4] The Philippines men's national cricket team under the PCA first competed internationally in 2011.[2] In 2014, the PCA organized the first official cricket match where one side is mostly composed of local Filipinos. The Philippine Developmental Team augmented by three members of the all-expatriate national team won over the Manila 'Roos, which was composed of Australian expatriate cricketers.[1] As of May 2018, the PCA was seeking for status as the National Sports Association (NSA) for cricket in the Philippines. It organizes a 24-team men's league, a 4-team women's league and an under-19 competition as of that time.[5] Efforts to gain NSA status ended in June 2018, when the PCA was recognized by the Philippine Olympic Committee as its member.[6] The PCA is promoting cricket in the country by introducing the sport in schools as well as bringing in foreign-based Filipino cricketers abroad.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|last=Fernandez|first=Rhoel|title=Rise of Azkals, football offers unique blueprint as growth of PH cricket pushed|url=http://www.spin.ph/sports/outdoor-sports/special-reports/rise-of-azkals-football-offers-unique-blueprint-as-growth-of-ph-cricket-pushed|publisher=Sport Interactive Network Philippines|accessdate=10 April 2014|date=3 February 2014}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Philippines Cricket Association|url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/about/members/east-asia-pacific/associate/132|website=International Cricket Council|accessdate=29 July 2017}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|last1=Munro|first1=Tony|title=Cricket in the Philippines|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/columns/content/story/87260.html|accessdate=29 July 2017|work=ESPN Cric Info|publisher=ESPN Sports Media Ltd.|date=7 February 2000}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=ICC East Asia-Pacific Development Program - Research Results 2000-2003|url=http://www.icc-cricket.com/icc/development/east-asia-pacific/research/2004/eap_combined.pdf|website=International Cricket Council|publisher=International Cricket Council|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070316130058/http://www.icc-cricket.com/icc/development/east-asia-pacific/research/2004/eap_combined.pdf|archivedate=16 March 2007}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Guerrero|first1=Bob|title=Cricket, anyone?
