"Cricket was well established in Tatura by 1880, but it was not until 1889 that the Tatura and District Cricket Club was formed, with Charles Wilson as its first President". Early matches were played at the old Police paddock next to the Station, and later, much hard labour produced "one of the nicest grounds I have ever played on (Rev. C.H. Zercho, 1921), out of the original town rubbish depot at the Public Gardens."Cricket was well established in Tatura by 1880, but it was not until 1889 that the Tatura and District Cricket Club was formed, with Charles Wilson as its first President".|Early matches were played at the old Police paddock next to the Station, and later, much hard labour produced "one of the nicest grounds I have ever played on (Rev.
