2017 ICC World Cricket League Division Three is a cricket tournament that is scheduled to take place in Uganda from 21 to 31 May 2017. The matches are scheduled to take place in Lugogo, Kyambogo and Entebbe.

Three countries bid to host the tournament – Canada, Malaysia, and Uganda. In October 2016, the International Cricket Council (ICC) approved a proposal for the tournament to be held in Uganda, subject to security arrangements and costs. Two ICC officials toured the country in December 2016, meeting with the country's First Lady, Janet Museveni, and Prime Minister, Ruhakana Rugunda. Museveni pledged government support for the tournament.
