We had a visit from on Friday by English weightlifters on a break from their practice sessions in Nottingham, and before travelling to Birmingham for the Commonwealth games. They had a great time and posed afterwards. (Photo credit: David Brydon)
Thanks to members who arranged and hosted this at short notice.
Over the next 10 days we are hosting no less than four quite varied Golf Croquet events:
- Sat 9th – Sun 10th: Nottingham GC Championship
- Wed 13th: GC B-level tournament
- Thurs 14th: GC C-level tournament
- Sat 16th – Sun 17th: GC Home Internationals
Between them these give wonderful opportunities to watch GC play at all levels, and give some of our members something to aspire to. The weekend events will attract some of the UK's top players and will be particularly impressive. The Home Internationals will involve teams of four representing England, Scotland and Wales, and will include members of our club in all three teams. (Ireland sadly will not be represented this time).
Now we have 9 lawns we can run these events and sill have capacity for members to play each other.
