With the court playing fast, there were plenty of good attempts at hoops and strong shots from all involved. Final scores were Jenny with 1, April with 3, Anna with 3, Elaine with 5 and Carmel with 7 The afternoon was marked by fun and laughter, a reminder of the relaxed yet competitive spirit of the club. Midweek play on Wednesday, 17 September, featured a mix of Association Croquet and a special introduction to the sport for a guest. Jenny and Gwen teamed up against Heather in a tight Association match. Heather narrowly claimed victory, pegging out at 26 to Jenny and Gwen’s 23.
