Following the announcement of Patricia Duke-Cox's retirement as President of Croquet England with effect from the end of the AGM in October 2025, nominations are invited for her successor.

The role of President conveys no executive powers, but the President represents Croquet England at significant events, including presenting prizes or arranging for others to do so, and chairs Annual General Meetings. The President is entitled, if they wish, to attend meetings of the Board of Trustees and the Executive.

Candidates may be proposed and seconded by any Member of Croquet England (i.e. any subscriber who has registered to vote). The Board of Trustees will also propose a candidate. If more than one candidate is proposed, Members will be asked to elect who will serve as the next President, using a Single Transferable Vote.

To nominate a candidate, please send a nomination form giving the names of the candidate, the proposer and the seconder and any personal statement by the candidate to gabrielle.higgins#croquetengland.org.uk by 11.59pm on 16th September 2025.
