YMPC Cricket Club is a cricket club in Barbados. The club plays in the Barbados Cricket Association Division 1 championship. The club is part of the Young Men's Progressive Club of Barbados; established in 1935 for "lower middle income whites and near whites for whom there was no space in Pickwick and Wanderers [cricket clubs]".^[1] Changes in Barbadian society meant that from the 1960s onwards, the membership of YMPC gradually came to reflect the general Barbadian population.^[2] YMPC's home ground is at Beckles Road, Saint Michael.^[3] The club motto is mens sana in corpore sano.

YMPC won the 2006 Division 1 championship—the club's third—only eight years after a mass exodus of leading players threatened the future of the club.^[4] The club's previous championship was shared with Empire Cricket Club in 1991.^[5]

Notable players include West Indies Test cricketers:

Joel Garner^[6]
Collis King^[6]
Fidel Edwards^[4]
Dwayne Smith^[4]
