and those who attended the Beginners' Course, went very well ably
managed by Lorna Frost.
The

Format: We had 7 members entered in
the competition which was run as 2 blocks (4 in one and 3 in the
other), all playing all within their group, playing
Short Croquet 14pt. games lasting a maximum of 1 hr. 15 mins. They
were: Lance
Vandersyde, Iman van Dembout, Esther Walker, Roger McCall, David
Morrow, Derek Watson & Richard Abbott
The
scoring was such that the winner of a game got 20 points
plus the difference in the scores while the loser's score was
the number

The final and runners-up
spot were competed for by the winners from
each block, the 3rd/4th places by the runners-up from each block, the
5th/6th places by the 3rd places from each block and the 7th/8th places
by the 4th places from each block.
