Nottingham host Sheffield U3A

Omied Hallam reports:-

Nottingham where very happy to host Sheffield Croquet Club for an end of season friendly match. With a mixture of handicaps and AC and GC played on both side we played a variety of different games. The morning started with golf double followed by some advanced singles while others played golf doubles and singles. After a lovely and social lunch the teams played 2 games of alternate stroke doubles. The day was sunny and the play was relaxed, it was a great opportunity to support another club and also give some of the newer Nottingham players some experiences in competitive play. The final score was 12.5 to 8.5 to Nottingham not that it really mattered as everyone had a great day and some fun which is what it was all about. Special thanks to Eugene Chang for organising the event.
