Enfield Croquet Club 2009 Results

Golf Croquet League

Our 2009 Golf Croquet league proved to be not only successful but an ideal way in which new recruits got the chance to become acquainted with the vast majority of club members during the course of the competition. In addition many participants found that the league became a major learning experience in relation to both the tactical and technical aspects of the game when playing against some of our more established members, especially those who represent the Club in competitions. All in all this league was great fun, a pleasant and sociable experience and for some an ideal learning curve which made it very much worth while. Final Standings as at 13th December:
