Youlden Cricketer's Almanac 2016-17
YOULDEN CRICKETER’S ALMANAC 2016-17 A STATISTICAL REVIEW OF YOULDEN PARKVILLE C.C. FOR THE SEASON 2016-17 FOREWORD After the success of 2015-16 where the 4th X1 won the premiership, the 1st and 2nd X1’s were beaten grand finalists and the 3rd X1 made the semi final, expectations for the 2016-17 season were high. Unfortunately the Club could not repeat that level of success with the only two sides making the finals this season. The David Pizzey 5th X1 bowed out in the preliminary final to eventual premiers Burnley CYMS and the Nicholas Demelis led 2nd X1 unfortunately lost their third straight grand final, this year against Parkville Districts. The 3rd and 4th X1’s both played in the grade above where they played last season and the 5th X1 moved into D Saturday, which meant that YPCC was the only club to field a side in all 5 levels of Saturday cricket in the MCA! The Powerful Owls program continued to build on their success from the previous year to again feature in the finals. The Club once again fielded 10 junior teams for the season. All of the teams that played for points played in the finals, unfortunately none of them won a grand final, which is the first time in 5 seasons that the juniors have not won a flag. The breeding ground for the junior teams, the In2Cricket program for 5 to 8 year olds, moved back to Saturday mornings, with a second session being run on Sunday mornings helping to dramatically increase the numbers doing the program. -

The quiz itself was fiercely and noisily contested and enjoyed by all, whilst many members took the opportunity to pay their annual subs and sign their membership forms, which helps Jane (Kempthorn) and Andy (Spedding) with the tremendous administration work they do Also noticed that Louis Pryor is now taller than me – although that’s not difficult Club Force followed the week after and although all the work was completed I have to say the response from members was disappointing This is an occasion when ALL sections of the Club need to play their part but it probably benefits the cricket club more than anyone, as we play the summer game However, and as a consequence of the dedicated few, the Nets are now in tip top condition, the covers are fit for purpose and the sight-screens are state of the art – just compare them with those at neighbouring Ex-Blues, and the pavilion has been given a lick of paint. -
The Peterite
THE PETERITE Vol. LXXI OCTOBER, 198o No. 397 Editorial Committee: Alistair Carder-Geddes, Christopher Ashurst, Michael Bowstead, Anthony Dixon, Ian Cramb, Andrew Fawthrop, Timothy Blackburn, Andrew Cochrane, Neil Harness and David Aspinall. Photographs: Lawrence Bleasdale. Edited by R. C. G. Drysdale, M.A. PREFACE The Peterite caters for several different markets. Many readers rightly want a record of what has been going on in the School during the previous academic year. Parents and prospective parents want to gain an idea of the multitude of activities available. Some want to see evidence of the consider- able artistic and literary talent in the School. Others expect a measure of entertainment. The Old Peterites, too, have a strong claim on the magazine as it was originally published with them in mind. These claims are not, of course, necessarily mutually exclusive. It is, however, difficult to satisfy all these competing interests equally and the end result is, inevitably, a compromise. This year's magazine sets out to publish a greater number of original contributions and while the response to the Poetry competition was encour- aging, the committee was disappointed by the comparative lack of interest in the Short Story and Photographic competitions. This edition of The Peterite is thus not exactly what the Editorial Committee wanted, but it is a step in that direction. It is hoped that next year's issue will contain more contribu- tions from the wealth of talent in the School. The Editor wishes to thank the many contributors to The Peterite and would welcome articles of general interest from Peterites past and present. -

Youlden Cricketer's Almanac 2015-16
YOULDEN CRICKETER’S ALMANAC 2015-16 A STATISTICAL REVIEW OF YOULDEN PARKVILLE C.C. FOR THE SEASON 2015-16 FOREWORD After the successful 2014-15 season where both the 1st and 2nd X1’s made Grand Finals, expectations for the 2015-16 season were high. Some aggressive recruiting helped offset the loss of some key personal from last year’s campaign and also allowed the Club to field a 5th X1 for the first time in its history. All senior X1’s won at least as many games as they lost with the 3rd X1 finishing top of the ladder before unfortunately bowing out in the semi-final. The 1st and 2nd X1’s both finished 2nd on the ladder and were both unfortunately beaten Grand Finalists. Under the leadership of first time captain Matt Perkins, the 4th X1 finished 3rd on the ladder before destroying the opposition in three successive finals to claim the Clubs first senior flag since 2011-12! Four teams in the finals was the most of any club in the MCA. We were the only club to have three grand finalists! The Powerful Owls program continued to build on their success from the previous year to again feature in the finals. The Club once again fielded 10 junior teams for the season. The Club fielded its first “A” Grade junior team in any Junior age level. That under 12 team were narrowly defeated in the semi-finals. The Under 12D team won the premiership after a dominate season, and the Under 16C team lost on the last ball of the Grand Final after sitting bottom of the ladder at the half way point of the season.
