Forbes Croquet

July 13, 2023 By Roxane Manley

A very pleasant morning for croquet.

Last week the Croquet Club purchased 11 mallets that were made by the Mens Shed, and we were lucky enough that the Vandenberg Hotel offered to sponsor us and paid for the mallets. We would like to give them a very big thank you!

There were 27 players for Aussie Croquet on a chilly morning on Saturday 8th July. The big winners were: 14 – 8 Neville Spry, Kevin Rubie and May Jones. 14 – 9 John Job and John Faraah, Merv Langfield and Tony Thomson. 14 – 10 Alex Todd and Joan Littlejohn, Cheryle Toohey and John Browne.

The close games were:
