The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land where our administration office is based within the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and where the majority of our members come together every week, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people. The land surrounding the MCG, now called Yarra Park, has been a special meeting place for from time Immemorial for Wurundjeri Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people, long before the stadium was built and made it a meeting place for modern-day Australia. It was the place of age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal. The MCG today is a place for newer ceremonies, many of which proudly involve First Nations peoples. Their living culture had and has a unique role in the life of the MCG and its surrounding precinct.
