Although many of the players are students, or former students it is not compulsory to be so, in order to play for the cricket club. The Tasmania University Cricket Club was founded in 1898, just 8 years after the University itself was founded. Despite being founded over 60 years earlier, TUCC did not get accepted into TCA competitions until the 1960-61 season. TUCC have won 5 TCA Premierships, including back to back wins in 1985-86 and 1986-87.
