Charlie Young (7 December 1877 – 31 March 1949) was an Australian rules football player at the Melbourne Football Club in the Australian Football League (known then as the Victorian Football League (VFL). He became one of the club's first premiership players, playing in the 1900 VFL Grand Final, under the captaincy of Dick Wardill. Young made his debut against South Melbourne in Round 1 of the 1897 VFL season, at the Lake Oval, and topped the club's goalkicker tally in 1898. He has been given the Melbourne Heritage Number of 20, based on the order of his debut for the club.[1] Young was named in 2008, on the club's 150th anniversary as a legend of the game, in the 150 heroes list.
