Croquet Notes

August 31, 2017 by Maggi Barnard

Today is officially the start of spring with darting swallows spotted at the croquet club this week.

Results for golf croquet last Tuesday: Hat tricks went to John H Browne, Dorothea Croker, Bruce Field, John MacCullagh and Kevin Rubie, while two wins each goes to Lorna Field, Mary Hodges, Joan Littlejohn, Elvy Quirk, Bill Scott, Dorelle Scott, Lyn Simmonds and Alec Todd.

Aussie Saturday results saw the competition a bit stiffer as no one took all three wins but 15 members managed two wins each. They were Anne Stewart, Lorraine Todd, Alec Todd, Barry White, Kath Broderick, John H Browne, Dorothea Croker, Joan Littlejohn, John MacCullagh, Veva MacCullagh, Elizabeth McLean, Bob Murray, Kevin Rubie, Lyn Simmonds, Bill and Dorelle Scott.

If you would like to come and enjoy a game of croquet on Tuesday or Saturday give secretary Anne a call on 6851 5320 or vice-president Bill on 6857 6620. The cost is $2.00 to start.
