Penrith Cricket Club 2017-18 Metropolitan Cup Premiers

By Peter Tracey

To win a competition after using 32 players throughout the season is a testament to the strength of the club's junior base and is a great sign for the club in the years ahead. With the club having a large number of players unavailable at times during the year, the Metro boys never really had the same team two games in a row. Some weeks, the side had 6 or 7 new players in it.

Ash Burton is an inspirational cricketer. He has all the attributes to inspire. He is dedicated, loyal, patient, committed, enthusiastic and talented. And apart from all that, he is a real team man who works hard on his game, rolls with the punches and enjoys the successes which inevitably follow.

On Saturday 18 October 2025, in the round 4 match against Mosman at Allan Border Oval, he was in the 1st Grade lineup. It was his 62nd match in 1st Grade and 45th in the principal Belvidere Cup competition.

George Cranney was an unassuming and modest man his record of service for the club was peerless – for such a long time he was the heart and soul of the Central Cumberland District Cricket Club.

He made a ‘priceless’ contribution to Cumberland (Parramatta) over a fifty year timeframe.

Claude Tozer: What might have been

One of the most tragic figures of the First World War period was Dr. Claude Tozer, whose meteoric rise and shocking end became one of cricket's most heartbreaking stories. Born September 27, 1890, Tozer had been a recognised University player before the war, twice heading the First Grade batting aggregate lists with averages above 70.

His path to cricket stardom was interrupted by the Great War, where he served with extraordinary distinction. Enlisting in the Australian Army Medical Corps in May 1915, Tozer quickly rose to the rank of captain

Aarna Parwal - Penrith Cricket Club Women's Rookie of the Year, 2025-26

I started playing cricket in 2020 with the Baulkham Hills Cricket Club in Stage 2 competitions. As I was younger at the time and needed to play in a team more suitable for my age group, I then moved to Kellyville Cricket Club to play Stage 1 cricket. I played for Kellyville Supersonics for four years, and in 2022, I began playing representative cricket for Hornsby Ku-ring-gai District Cricket Club. During my time in representative cricket, I progressed from Mollie Dive through to Margaret Peden for Hornsby. During my last year of representative cricket, I moved to premier cricket and was fortunate enough to represent Penrith Cricket Club in Brewer Shield.
