It was especially pleasing to see a number of our newer members brave enough to enter the competition. We hope to see you participate in many more future events.
The Runners Up of the two blocks were Dianne & Sandra and Pam & Don who will receive a Bronze Merit Badge each.
The winners of the two blocks, Bryan & Noelen and Charles & Ben, then had 90 minute long battle to determine the ultimate positions of the 2019 Golf Croquet Doubles Competition.
Noelen & Bryan used their 4 Handicap Extra Turns wisely and pulled ahead with four hoops first up, putting a lot of pressure on Charles & Ben, however, in the end Noelene & Bryan were defeated 7:4 by Charles & Ben.
The 2019 Doubles winners are: Charles & Ben, earning a Gold Badge each and the Runners-Up Noelene & Bryan earning a Silver Badge each.
