The Long Innings

Over by Over Since 1895

1895

First ball bowled

The club is founded, with early meetings held at the Wellington Point Hotel. Cricket takes root in the Redlands, and never leaves.

1994

On the books

The club is formally registered as an incorporated association in Queensland, giving the Wildcats a proper legal footing to manage its affairs, hold assets and plan for the future.

1999

A new home ground

WPCC relocates to Mooroondu Road, Thorneside, becoming affiliates of the Mooroondu Sports & Recreation Club, a move that gives the Wildcats access to first-class facilities beside the bay.

2015

120 not out

The club celebrates 120 years of service to the community, a historic local institution that has developed talented players, including notable alumnus Clinton Perrin.

Today

Still batting

Nearly 200 registered players across juniors, girls and seniors, with programs like Cricket Blast nurturing the next generation of Wildcats. The innings continues.
