Penberthy, a follower, played 81 games at Subiaco between 1927 and 1931. Amongst his seven interstate appearances for Western Australia were games at the 1930 Adelaide Carnival. He also played cricket for Subiaco.

In 1932 he left the state and joined Footscray, with whom he would spend five and a half seasons. He captained Footscray in 1936 and for the early rounds of the 1937 season, before playing out the year with Melbourne.
