Great Britain vs Ireland Croquet Match, September 3rd/4th 2011

Great Britain 3
Ireland 3
This was the score at Nailsea, near Bristol on the second day after a disappointing 7/1 defeat on the first day.

We were deeply saddened to learn the news of the very sudden passing of croquet legend Charles Jones at the age of 56.

2011 Golf Croquet World Championship at Hurlingham
A Commentary on the Commentaries. By Evan Newell.

Two commentaries are to be found on the Web that do not, in my opinion, provide a balanced view of the Hurlingham World Golf Croquet Championship of July 2011. The two to which I refer are:

Chris Clarke’s “opinion” as recorded on the dedicated Championship web site.
Mohammad Kamal’s “post-mortems” of the Championship to be found at “croquetworld.com”.
