Croquet Communiqué
Recent matches
We played a floodlit GC Match at home against Dulwich. Unfortunately, Dulwich only had three players due to last-minute work commitments and severe traffic saw one of them stationary for an hour, so he turned back.
However, we had six players, so an enjoyable series of games were played, and of the three that were contested between the two clubs, Roehampton Club won 2-1.
The Roehampton Club Team were Harry Fisher, Mark Van Loon, Peter Siddall, Dan Pearson Tony Salem and John Pearson.
On Saturday 23rd November, we sent a GC team to Ealing – sadly neither the weather nor the results were good and despite our best efforts we came second.
Roehampton Club Team: Jinni Featherstone Witty, Ann RIx, Jeanette and Adrian Burn.
