Croquet Results

Golf Croquet Tuesday 13th August

It was hard to see each other in a very thick fog but that didn’t deter 31 players who took to the field happy to be back after the cancellation on Saturday.

Vice President, John Cole welcomed Elvy Quirk and John Browne back after their European Cruise looking well after a break.

John hadn’t lost his skill as he was one of the winners of 3 games also Lorraine Todd, Bob Murray, Mal Smith and Kevin Rubie.

Congratulations Lorraine as you do a splendid job in the kitchen making sure we have enough sultana bread for morning tea and a supply of lollies to keep up our energy.

Aussie Croquet Saturday 17th August

Geoff Coles brought his daughter Kathy and her partner Robert along for a game and with his coaching they didn’t take long to make their mark on the scoreboard! A great field of players saw 31 taking to the field on a lovely day of sunshine after the fog lifted.

The winners of 3 games were Kevin Rubie, Bruce Field, Barry White and Neville Spry. Kevin is almost always a winner and is seen practising his shots as soon as he arrives. Jill Rubie has also done a great job keeping the finances in order.
