2013 Golf Croquet Grass Roots

Golf Croquet

The Club runs a preliminary tournament for the Grass Roots Golf Croquet Competition which is open to beginners without a handicap and higher handicappers with a Golf Croquet handicap of 9 and over. The competition is played as a series of 13-point doubles games with a change of partners after each game.

This year the national entry is too small to justify holding Regional Finals, so the top four players play a singles semi-final and final and a number of players depending on the size of entry proceed straight to the National Final, to be held at Ashby on 7th September.

This national competition has been won by a Watford player three times in recent years - John Walker in 2005, Nick Archer in 2007, and Frances Skinner in 2009.

This year the preliminary tournament was on Tuesday 18^th June 2013.
