On Saturday (30/10) a small group from the Warwick Croquet Club played Ricochet Croquet

Marian Cirson and Dorothy Gartery defeated opponents Helen Dooley and Lesley Grayson 11-9. There was one other game between Tony Hinde and Peter Campbell which was not scored.

Warwick Mallet players are committed to their sport, however this past Tuesday it was the Melbourne Cup that took precedence, and the normal group of Tuesday players were happy to forgo their usual game and headed off to try and find the Cup winner.

After the Melbourne Cup celebrations had subsided a large group were on the court on Thursday for the weekly Golf Croquet games.

The form of Meredith Thornton, Beth Schottelius , Joyce Mahony and Barb Morrison were almost in form as good as Veery Ellegant. They were certainly on song each scoring a Hole in One.
