9th September (AC)

We had a full tournament with 16 players ranging from -2.5 to 1 (the best group we have ever had)

Congratulations go to Mark Avery who returned from winning last year to successfully defend his win with a 100% win rate. Nigel Polhill was runner up close on Mark's heels with 5 out of 6 wins.

The lawns all had there own challenges which made for only 9 tp's being completed across the whole tournament.

Players came from all over the country and across the waters from Ireland and Isle of Wright.

This year we changed the format of the tournament from blocks and knockouts to a Flexible Swiss event allowing for players to play more matches as well as speedy players not having to wait so long for their matches.

The bad weather predicted never arrived and instead we had lovely sunshine to play in which encouraged members to come and spectate.

Sara Anderson mult-tasked managing the tournament and playing with Ben.

All results are on Croquet Scores.
