Port of EchucaFunctional object - Paddlesteamer, George Linklater, P.S. Adelaide, 1866
... Echuca wharf. For a short time she was sold to Mildura but fortunately the Apex Club raised funds to buy her back to be a reminder of the riverboat days at the Port. ...Echuca Apex Club...Adelaide Functional object Paddlesteamer George Linklater Echuca Apex Club ...Built in 1866 in Echuca, the PS Adelaide is the oldest wooden hulled paddle steamer still operating as a passenger vessel in the world. Engines made in Melbourne by Fulton and Shaw. JG Grassie was the original owner who was looking for a wool carrying boat as a commercial venture with the arrival of the rail at the Port of Echuca making the future look bright. Seutonius and Charles Officer of Murray Downs Station joined Grassie in financing the venture and they used the boat for 6 years before David Blair and partners (Echuca sawmillers) bought the Adelaide in July of 1872 and she began her long working life as a logging boat providing a shuttle service between the forests around Barmah and the mill, usually towing up to 3 or 4 barges. The paddle boxes were rebuilt from round to a square configuration in approximately 1924 by Charles Felshaw, local Echuca shipwright. The Adelaide had unusual strength for her size. Her career ended in the mid 1950s where she lay idle tied up near the mill at Echuca wharf. For a short time she was sold to Mildura but fortunately the Apex Club raised funds to buy her back to be a reminder of the riverboat days at the Port. She was lifted out for safekeeping into Hopwood Gardens where she remained on show for nearly 25 years. After restoration by Port shipwright Keven Hutchinson OAM, she returned to the waters of the Murray River on Sunday March 4th 1984 at 5.20pm. After further restoration, in 1985 the Prince and Princess of Wales re-commissioned PS ADELAIDE in a ceremony on their tour of the region. The world's oldest wooden hulled paddle steamer still operating as a passenger vessel today built in Echuca in 1866. It is often considered the flagship of the operational fleet of the Port of Echuca given its age and known provenance to Echuca. The Adelaide is an iconic symbol of the riverboat timber and cargo trade that worked on the Murray River from the mid 1800s. Remarkably, PS ADELAIDE still operates with its original Fulton and Shaw engines.Composite hull, side wheeler with two single cylinder steam engines, producing a total of 36hp.

During those early days, most competitions, like the founders of our great sport, were run by, or in conjunction with, the YMCA. Competitions were running at the Ballarat School of Mines and the YMCA’s of Bendigo, Geelong and Warrnambool. In August 1966, an invitation was extended by the Victorian Amateur Volleyball Association to play in the first State-wide event at Monash University. Geelong and Bendigo accepted the invitation with Melbourne represented by Sisu. For Bendigo players at least, this was the first exposure to ‘international rules’, which prevented upward scoops with open hands, introduced an action called a ‘dig’ and seemed to penalise most overhead actions using the fingers as ‘double hits’! Over the next few years, the sport expanded through the YMCA movement with weekly competitions starting up in Ararat, Warrnambool and Latrobe Valley. The Victorian Regional Council of YMCA’s proposed the first Victorian YMCA Championship in Warrnambool on 30th March 1968 with an entry fee of $4.00 per team. The sport continued to grow with additional regional associations affiliating with the Victorian Amateur Volleyball Association (now VVI) who provided the coaching and refereeing assistance needed to raise the standard of play. In 1970, the YMCA Championships started to give way to the Victorian Country Championships with the first ever event held in Bendigo. In 1973, a re-organisation of the VAVA saw the proposal to create separate Victorian Country and Metropolitan Volleyball Councils. The VCVC was established in 1974 and took over the organisation of the Victorian Country Championships. For the next 10-12 years, the Country Championships grew in stature with the inclusion of two divisions for open men and women and junior divisions for boys and girls. Representative teams successfully contested Australian Country Championships between Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales on several occasions. In October 1985, the VCVC voluntarily wound up the Council and handed the responsibility for the Country Championships back to Volleyball Victoria, who by that time had full-time State Executive and Coaching Directors. Since that time, the Long Weekend in June has continued to be the date of the major annual volleyball event for most regional associations, even though in 1986 the Junior Country Championships were wound up in favour of state and national schools events. A number of regional associations have ceased to exist, as have a number of regional tournaments. Regional leagues were created in both the Gippsland and Central, North-West regions, with Gippsland the only one to survive. Some associations have successfully competed in the State League competitions at various times. Following the experience gained by a number of regional administrators working on the Sydney Olympic Games, a proposal to revamp the Victorian Country Championship was put to VVI in early 2002. Later that year, the Volleyball Victoria Country Championships Commission was formed to implement the recommendations of the review and take control of the event into the future. These championships now provide regional players and officials an opportunity to participate in a consistently well-managed event, using many international protocols and a high standard of presentation. Without doubt, this event now ranks as one of the best volleyball events in Australia. Source: 2022 Country Championship regulations The management of the Country Championships by the Victorian Country Championship Commission certainly achieved the objective of raising the standard of presentation, and delivering a consistently high quality event. However, the demands on Host Associations began to take their toll, with several Associations declining the opportunity to host the event due to the high workload. Similarly, the workload of the volunteer Commissioners also took its toll, with the Commission unable to fill casual vacancies. In 2023, the Commission handed the organisation of the Championships back to VVI, who with paid staff, were better equipped to manage the event.This item contains Correspondence of the Council in 1976 and reports on the Country Championships for that year; it includes the following documents: 11171.5a Letter from Swan Hill Volleyball Association President 11171.5b Letter from the ehuca and District YMCA Youth Clubs 11171.5c Letter from VAVA re contact details of country associations 11171.5d Letter from the Swan Hill Volleyball Association 11171.5e Letters to and from the VAVA and VCVC 11171.5f Invoice for Olympic Team Appeal Biros 11171.5g Invoice for Olympic Team Appeal Biros to all Associations 11171.5h Letter to the Echuca and District YMCA Youth Clubs 11171.5i Letter from the Warrnambool Volleyball Association 11171.5j Letter to the VAVA 11171.5k Country Championships, Roster for Referees and Draw 11171.5l Country Championships Team Registrations 1976 11171.5m Voting Slips to approve Albury Wodonga to join the VCVC 11171.5n Letter from Geelong Volleyball association 11171.5o Letter of apology from VAVA for non attendance at the Country Championships 11171.5p Letter from the Goulburn Valley Volleyball Association 11171.5q Letters to and from the Ballarat Volleyball Association 11171.5r Letter to the VAVA Treasurer Mark Perrott 11171.5s Letter from the Geelong Amateur Volleyball Association Registration fees 11171.5t Letter from VAVA Treasurer Mark Perrott 11171.5u Three letters from the VAVA and Department of Youth Sport and recreation 11171.5v Study of Voluntary Workers 11171.5w Letter from Latrobe Valley Volleyball Association 11171.5x Letter from Ballarat Volleyball re their tournament 11171.5y Notice of AGM Sept 1976 at Ballarat 11171.5z Goulburn Valley Volleyball Association Letter Office Bearers 11171.5aa Three letters from the VAVA 11171.5ab Letter from Ballarat Association requesting a referee 11171.5ac Letter from Geelong Volleyball re monies paid 11171.5ad Circular from VAVA Chinese Reciprocal Visitvictorian country volleyball council, vcvc, victorian amateur volleyball association, volleyball victoria -
