1955 2nd XI Crossley Shield Winners
Three committee members appear on this photo, as if emphasising the achievement of Mytholmroyd's second team in winning the 1955 Crossley Shield. There are 12 cricketers in view, emphasising that it is not just an 11-man game, and the captain P.Armstrong looks suitably proud with the shield in front of him. The club's next Crossley Shield triumph was 51 years later in 2006. And for good measure, the club retained the shield in 2007 - with both successes coming under the captaincy of Jon Russell.
