2023-09-10 | Association Croquet – Brian Reither Challenge Cup 2023
The Victorian Croquet Centre at Cairnlea hosted the Brian Reither Challenge Cup on the weekend of 9th and 10th September. This is the third year the event has been run and it is named in honour of Croquet Victoria Life Member, Brian Reither. Brian kindly offered to be Tournament Manager this year.
There was a field of 10 playing in two round robin blocks of five. In Block A, Robert Fletcher won all four of his games while Greg Hill lost only one game, which was to Robert. In Block B, the 3rd seed Lachlan Berryman was the standout winning all his games. Second place getter in the block was Greg Fletcher with 3 wins from 4 games. Greg completed two triple peels whilst Lachlan completed one. read more... | 2023-09-07  | Robert Fletcher success in England

The Victorian Croquet Centre at Cairnlea hosted the Association Croquet Women’s and Men’s Championships on the weekend of 2nd and 3rd September. We had some interstate players – Nerida Taylor and Tim Murphy from NSW and Dwayne McCormick from SA. Also, it was great to have Greg Fletcher playing again. He is living in Germany and playing a few tournaments while on a shortish visit to Australia.
There was a field of 6 in the Women’s event and so they all played each other in a round robin. Elaine Coverdale (Essendon) and Tricia Devlin (Castlemaine) both won 4 out of their 5 games and played off in the final. Tricia got a bit of a start with both balls but lost the innings. Elaine played some great shots to start her first break of 9 including a take-off the full length of the lawn and then a superb 30-yard rush from corner 3 to hoop 1. Her second break was equally impressive. Elaine won the final 21-4 for her 4th Victorian AC Women’s Championship.

Di Trotter from triple H Community Radio opened the Horsham Croquet Club by “running” the first blue ball through the hoop for our season 2023-2024
Unfortunately, the Weather was rather cold and damp, although 26 Club members managed to brave the conditions before lunch and played 2 13/hoop games. After lunch every one stayed nice and warm inside the air-conditioned club room and enjoyed a lovely social chat as the weather definitely was not going to improve.
After a tasty afternoon tea and a cuppa was served up for all to enjoy, everyone went home rather tired to rest their weary bodies (not necessary from playing croquet though)
Thanks to all who helped in any way making this day possible. read more... |
