(General Information)
During these dark and dismal days of winter, when your thoughts turn to warmer times and one can start hitting a ball around the lawn again, perhaps you can recall how your game was helped by that Coach who showed you how to improve your game. Each year the Croquet Association recognises a Coach who has made a particular contribution to the game.
*The closing date for nominations is 31st January*.
This is an item the Coaching committee will consider at its meeting in February. Please send your nomination (including citation) for Coach of the Year (2011) to the Chairman of the Coaching Committee (Roger Staples) before the deadline.
