Think you will find both have gone to the VTCA
Both are listed on the VTCA's recently expanded list of clubs

Thanks boys.. Interesting, would have thought Sunshine YCW would have learnt there lesson first time around when they nearly folded as a result of being in that comp. As for heights, they must just love playing outside there local area..

The VTCA has been re structured since the last time YCW were in it, and is in a growth phase. A new western division is being formed this season.
That should be fun. North, South, West - add East and it will almost be as far reaching as subbies.
The western division was going to be for the WDCA sides when they crossed over, there was copy of the new grade & the sides that would be in it shown to delegates at a WDCA meeting last year. The MMVCA sides are going to be in a new north west comp.
A completely new north west comp or a north west division in VTCA? Most of the MMVCA teams are already featured in the club section of the VTCA website. http://www.vtca.asn.au/common/pages/public/iv/clubs.aspx?
Would the MMVCA turf sides join the VTCA and the Matting sides join the old NWCA (formerly EBKCA)?
The VTCA has several drawbacks. One being the allocation of points. Points are based on runs, wickets and results. The VTCA does not allow clubs with large grounds to rope them off so therefore it is hard to score runs on them. There are other clubs that play on home grounds the size of postage stamps which means that they can score anything from 250-400 most games (pitch willing). The difference in points makes a huge difference when it comes to final ladder positions.

we used to have bonus point system in WDCA, it was great fun having to go out & bowl 25 overs on a hot day when you'd already been beaten on a 1st innings = JOKE! It clearly is a crap system & nobody in VTCA lkes it but they dont care what their clubs think, they're just a number!!

Shows how much you know !!
The Clubs, not the exec., voted overwhelmingly to retain the points system at a meeting last year.
You use words like joke and crap, they could be easily be directed at your insignificant little comp where 3 or 4 big fish swim around in an ever diminishing fish bowl devouring the same old poor little minnows year after year with no opportunity to challenge or develop themselves at a higher level = boring
Stick to making comments on things you have some limited knowledge about and get the chip off your shoulder
Outside of the WDCA no one cares !!
i think you'll find the clubs who voted for keeping the system are the top clubs, and clubs with small grounds. The whole going out to bowl 1 over after fielding for 79 is a joke, as well as fielding after a result has been defined without an outright result being achieved
As for whoever said clubs can't rope off their ground, with a permit they're allowed to

I think you'll find your're wrong.
From what I can recall at the meeting the vote by those clubs that attended was 45 to 11 in favour of retaining the current system.
By your reckoning that makes 80% of the clubs "top clubs"

If you had any idea what of is happening within cricket in melbourne you would know that premier along with a number of other associations a looking at a points system based on the vtca model. The bottom line is you pretend to know all, but in fact you know jack shite

Bentleigh will be in with a good show this season. Peter Roach is a fairly good player. I wonder how many ex first class cricketeres play in the VTCA? I have seen some Senior Division teams with 5.
