Grass Roots Golf Croquet CompetitionThe Grass Roots golf croquet competition, aimed at novices and beginners to the golf croquet scene, proved to be a happy and successful event for the 16 competitors who reached the final played at Northampton in September. Kenilworth and Lansdown were welcome newcomers to the competition this year. The
event encourages new players to learn from each other by playing up to 7 rounds
of progressive doubles before determining the top four who then play singles
games for the top four places in two further games. The
final four places went to Margaret Yeats from Bury with 28 points, John Keats
from Eynsham and John Harvey from Sapcote both with 27 points and 5 wins, and
John Norman from Woodhall Spa with 27 points and 4 wins who played off against
Bob Potter, also from Woodhall Spa, with the same points and wins. In
the semi-finals, John Harvey beat Margaret Yeats 7:4 and John Norman beat John
Keates 7:3. John Keates played Margaret Yeats and won 3rd place with
a 7:3 score whilst John Norman played John Harvey and became the cup winner with
a 7:0 score. Picture
