Croquet News And Results

October 25, 2019 By Maggi Barnard

It was a nice surprise this week to see some yellow markings on the lawn beside our clubhouse, which means we are finally getting some progress from the Council to build our new ramp giving access into the toilets, kitchen and storage sheds. The stairs have been a health and safety issue for some time, especially for older players.

Hopefully our extended undercover area could be close behind. This area will give us shelter from the wind and rain and will be at the opposite end of the shed.

Golf Croquet Results 15th October

There were only two winners of three games on Tuesday, Dorelle Scott and Alec Todd. Well done to you both.

Some amazingly close games keep players excited and on task with concentration at its best.

Aussie Croquet Results 19th October

Numbers were down, with only twenty seven players gracing the courts. The morn- ing started well before the wind and dust arrived towards the end of the matches. It was then a quick chat, a cup of coffee, raisin toast and a quick pack up of tables and chairs.

There were four winners of three matches on Saturday. They were Veva MacCullagh, Kevin Rubie, Harley Stewart and Neville Spry.

Close games were:

• Colleen Liebich, Neville Spry 14, def John Job, Barry White 11

• Anne Stewart, Merv Langfield 14, def Dorelle Scott, Geoff Coles 12

• John MacCullagh, Lorna Field 14, def Bob Murray, Kathleen Broderick 12

• John Allegri, Elizabeth McLean 14, def Jeff Liebich, Lorraine Todd 12
