Aussie Croquet Results 13th June
Saturday saw a record of 35 players for Aussie Croquet. Visitor Campbell Rubie graced the courts for his second or third visit. He is a fantastic young player with perfect vision. The club bought new hoops which seem narrower than the old ones. Most players have had problems with getting the balls through the narrow space but not Campbell Rubie. The club hopes to see more of him and has encouraged him to bring some friends along, they will be very welcome. There were five winners of three games. They were: John Browne, Ray Burridge, Marie Spry, John Cole and Joan Littlejohn.
