The second round of the Western Area Interclub Competition was held last Friday, 15th August. This time a team from Orange travelled to Dubbo to challenge our players on their home ground.
Our synthetic surface is somewhat faster to play on, than the usual grass lawns of the Orange City Croquet Club. It took the guests a little time to adjust their strokes to the court speed, but they soon adapted.
The format is Best-of-three matches, with two Singles and two Doubles to be played. The result was an even split between the clubs, with Dubbo winning their two Singles Matches and Orange winning the two Doubles Matches.
A big thank-you to the helpers, timers, and scorers, and especially to the suppliers of cake and goodies throughout the day.
