The United States of America Cricket Association (USACA) is the official governing body of the sport of cricket in the United States. USACA sponsors the United States cricket team that is recognized by the International Cricket Council, and has been an associate member of that body since 1965.

USACA administers "traditional" cricket, unrelated to Pro Cricket, a private body which established a now-defunct league in 2004. Cricket is unknown to most Americans, as epitomized in the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, wherein Casey Jones brandishes a cricket bat and Raphael responds, "Cricket!? Nobody understands cricket! You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket!"

However, USACA is becoming more famous, after the first National Junior Cricket Tournament was played that was sponsored by USACA. This tournament was hosted by California Cricket Academy.
