Croquet News and Results

March 8, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

Week ending 3rd March
The cooler mornings are very welcome and make our games so much more enjoyable. I expect that soon we will be complaining of the cold! Saturday’s games saw a smaller contingent of players than there has been over the past few weeks.

A general meeting was held on Tuesday, 20th February, where the position of Treasurer was handed over from Dorothea Croker to Caryl Slattery. President Elvy Quirk thanked Dorothea for her generous service to the club since its inception. Congratulations Caryl for taking on this worthwhile task.

It was a slow day on Tuesday with only two clean sweepers in a large field of players. Well done for winning three matches Mary Hodges and Libby Smart!

Saturday saw five clean sweepers with three winning matches from John H. Browne, Colleen Liebich, Veva MacCullagh, Bill Scott and Harley Stewart. Congratulations!
