The 2016–17 Districts One Day Tournament was a List A cricket competition in Sri Lanka. It replaced the scheduled Premier Limited Overs Tournament, after a legal challenge from from Negombo Cricket Club, after they were removed from Tier B of the 2016–17 Premier League Tournament. The challenge stopped the Premier Limited Overs Tournament from taking place, but Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) organised this tournament to replace it.

The tournament started on 15 March 2017, with 24 teams split into eight groups of three, with the matches given List A status. The final was played between Kegalle District and Colombo District at the P Sara Oval, Colombo, with Colombo District winning by 72 runs.
