10.01.2022 Wicket taking machine and state representative Penny Harford has taken the most wickets for us in the last 10 years. Of anyone on this list, what was your favourite wicket in this time?

10.01.2022 2019/20 BPCC LIFE MEMBER INDUCTEE - BEN BEECH Bens life membership induction was based on the below nomination: Ben played his junior cricket at Bayswater Park in the 90s. He worked his way up through the senior grades from 5th XI through to 1st XI over the space of a few seasons. It wasnt long before Ben was captain of our 1st XI side, a role which he filled for many years with great success both individually and as a team. ... Whilst performing his role as 1st XI captain Ben also served in various roles on committee including Vice-President. More recently Ben served as Club President for three seasons. Bens list of achievements at Bayswater Park are absolutely incredible. Highest EVER Senior Mens runscorer (5,217). Longest EVER serving 1st XI captain, 9 seasons (2003/04, 2005/06-2010/11, 2012/13-2013/14). Senior Club Champion (2006/07). Wilkins Competition Best & Fairest Winner (2006/07).

09.01.2022 Ringwood & District Cricket Association - Special General Meeting Outcome On the back on the Yarra Valley Cricket Associations vote last week to seek a merger ...with the Ringwood & District Cricket Association, The RDCA tonight held a Special General Meeting for all Clubs, Delegates and Life Members to cast their vote on the acceptance of this proposal.

08.01.2022 2019/20 BPCC LIFE MEMBER INDUCTEE - IAN BARLOW Ians life membership induction was based on the below nomination: Ian came to our club some 31 years ago when his son Stuart was around 8 years old. Having moved into the area Ian, Judy, Stuart and Cameron wanted to be involved in local sporting activity. A decision that has benefited our club ever since.... Although hard to believe, Ian and Judy would come up to the club of a Saturday evening and have a drink. They were quiet and shy. Since that time, their family has become important and valued members of our club. Ian went onto the committee and became Secretary and later, Treasurer. During his time on the committee he, with Keith Smith, introduced Friday night junior awards presentations after the completion of each round. It was one of the most successful junior initiatives the club had seen for many years. As a senior player, he teamed up with Barry Cain to captain our fledgling 5th XI full of junior and young inexperienced players for quite a few years. He then played for many years in our veterans XI culminating in a premiership in 2004/05. Through those years he and Judy made many life time friends including the Trumps, the Mackenzies, the Baileys, the Murphys, the Gotchs and the Dodds to name a few. Ian was and is prepared to help in any way he can at the club with projects that included building of the storage shed, re-grassing of the wicket at Guy Turner, the early days of Cinema Under the Stars and junior coaching. He has always been front and centre when we held social functions, whether it be cooking a spit roast, a BBQ or cleaning up afterwards. Ian is always ready to give a hand. In more recent years, Ian has been heavily involved in our junior program as his two grandchildren started their cricketing careers at BPCC. Ian has jointly run the Milo / Woolies program (including organising with the weekly BBQ with wife Judy) with Robin Court for the past five years and in addition to this, took on the coaching role for one of our two Under 10 teams this season.

If you are in, please click GOING and follow the instructions on the "about" section of the event with regards to payment. Go Sharks!

04.01.2022 IT’S HAPPENING! From Thursday, our club rooms will be open at last. We will be able to do what we all enjoy, catching up after training and a game for a drink or two. Like all other sporting clubs and businesses, there are some Covid protocols we need to follow, but the main thing is, we’re back.... At the moment, the bar will be run from the canteen window (outward facing). The rooms, including the bar/canteen, will be open on a Thursday night and Saturday after games. Bar service will also be available on game days but the rooms will be closed until matches have finished. We’re lucky to play cricket during the summer months when the sun is shining and encourage everyone to keep outdoors as much as possible, but if you want to head in doors, you’ll need to wear a mask at all times except when you’re sitting down at the designated tables to eat / drink. Masks also need to be worn when ordering from the bar / canteen. Density limits apply in the rooms (at both Guy Turner and Sasses) so please take note of the capacity signage that will be on display. Thanks for your support so far in getting the season up and going and we look forward to seeing our players and members in a more social setting from this Thursday.

04.01.2022 Bayswater Park Cricket Club are seeking applications for Junior Coaches for Season 2020/21. If you are interested, please get in contact with our Junior Coordinator Catherine Findlay on 0417583261 or via Facebook Messenger. We are looking to fill roles in our u10, u12, u14, u16 teams.... Applications will close Friday, September 4th at 5pm.

We had a whopping 43 teams playing with 89 people, raised some funds for the club, got to see some well missed faces, had plenty of laughs and of course answered a few questions along the way. Congratulations to Mrs. Posh (Michele Lockie) & Maeghan dArgaville for taking the chocolates last night. As you can see below though, they actually got quite a bit more than... just chocolates! Thanks so much to MoneyQuest - Camberwell and to many other of our much loved Sharks for the donation to our major prize. A huge thanks as well to our special guests Jackson Taylor MP and Robert Williams for joining us as well and particularly to Robert for the beautiful donation of our door prize on the night. The biggest thanks of all though, is reserved for our supporters that joined in. Each one of you were invaluable in making the night a success, so thank you again and GO SHARKS!
