  • Northcote Cricket Club a Few Name Changes, and Several Venue Changes Aside; the Northcote Cricket Club Can Trace Its History Back to the Mid 1870S
    Northcote Cricket Club A few name changes, and several venue changes aside; the Northcote Cricket Club can trace its history back to the mid 1870s. The club’s first recorded meeting was on July 17th 1875 and was organised by Northcote pioneer George Plant. The club played its matches at Plant’s Paddock in its early years, a field that sat at the base of Rucker’s Hill in what is now the Westgarth precinct, where the pitch conditions made batting extremely difficult. A score in double figures was quite an achievement for any batsman padding up at Plant’s Paddock! In 1878 the club changed its name to Northcote Star Cricket Club but continued to play its home matches at Plant’s Paddock. At this same time, another team playing at Northcote Park, in Westgarth St, and called the Northcote Park Cricket Club had emerged and would no doubt have been the chief rival to the Northcote Star Cricket Club. In addition a club based near the old asylum at Yarra Bend, several other ‘social’ teams based around Northcote and a few clubs from rural but growing Preston provided ample local opposition in addition to matches that could be arranged against clubs further a field. During the 1870s and into the 1880s, Northcote Star established itself as the leading cricket club in the area. One of its notable early achievements was dismissing an entire team from Preston for just one run. This one run came courtesy of a bye from the first ball of the innings. The bowler was McIntosh, and he proceeded to clean bowl the next five batsmen with five consecutive deliveries.
