Garden Croquet Tournament
The first ever garden croquet tournament at Nottingham Croquet Club took place on July 12th on a blisteringly hot Saturday. Eight new members competed over four rounds of timed games. The standard of play was excellent considering that the competitors only started playing croquet two months ago. About half of the games were pegged out within the 1 hour 20 minutes time limit.

Very well done to all the competitors, especially the winner, Alex McIntyre …
… and the runner up Carol Scott.
