MHSOBCC is a club that has a rich 93-year history. MHSOBCC is a club that is steeped in tradition and uses its links with the school to build towards future successes. MHSOBCC values… tradition, prestige and leadership and these are enforced in our players’ attitude towards the game. Most of all we have fun! We enjoy our cricket both on and off the field.

The club has won 20 premierships in the VAFA, but never an A Grade flag!

The club can formally seat 96 adults in a number of table configurations. However, when the club is set up for a formal dinner the inside area available for pre-dinner drinks is slightly restricted. The under cover balcony is used frequently in this situation. The ideal number for a formal lunch or dinner is up to 80 people. The club can cope with up to 150+ people in a non-formal setting. |
