The Bendigo and District Cricket Association (BDCA) is the controlling body for ten combined senior and junior cricket clubs within the Bendigo region of Victoria, Australia. Grades range from Under 11s, Under 13s, Under 15s, Under 17s, C,B and A grades. Games are played from October through to February with finals played in March. Recent seasons have been plagued by the drought. A dramatic turnaround has been seen during the 2010/2011 season however, as unprecedented rainfall in the local area has forced the abandonment of approximately 50% of the scheduled home & away matches.
