Eighteen players decided it was a great day for playing croquet and they were not wrong. Everyone was in high spirits and enjoyed both the games and social aspect of croquet. After three games of doubles it was Alex Adkins who won on a countback to Sandra Retallick. Alex, Dave Maher and Jay Grant scored hoops-in-one. Jay was very excited as she hasn’t had a hoop-in-one in a while. Congratulations to all.
