The Moroccan national team was made by former Test Cricketers Surinder and Mohinder Amarnath in 2002 in a project that was funded by businessman Abdul Rahman Bukhatir.[2] They were on a 3-year contract which ended well as they successfully managed to coach and create a well trained national team for Morocco.
Surinder Amarnath was involved in the development of the team and was responsible for coaching and training the boys who later formed the first ever Moroccan national team. The team has been active since at least 2004, and made its international debut in 2006, at the 2006 Africa Division Three tournament.[3] Although Morocco falls into the ICC Africa development region, the national federation also has links with European countries – a development team from the Gibraltar Cricket Association toured in 2003,[4] and England's Marylebone Cricket Club toured the following year.[5]
In 2016, it was reported that there were twelve active clubs, spread across six cities (Bouznika, Casablanca, Khemisset, Rabat, Salé, and Tangier).[6]
