Croquet report
A wet and cold Tuesday, but reasonable turn out. Our newest members Neville and Marie Spry, Ruth Cheney and Brad Stewart are becoming competitive and starting to win games. Winners of three games were John H. Browne, John Allegri, Carol Slattery and Harley Stewart. It is worth mentioning that Colleen Liebich had two holes in one in one game, which is an unusual event.
It was great to see Joan Littlejohn back on the courts on Saturday after her nasty fall a few weeks ago. She must be mending well. She won two games and definitely has not lost her form. That was a great effort. Three winners of three games were Lorna field, Bob Murray, Kevin Rubie and Harley Stewart.
