Spring season success for Lilydale Croquet

On Monday 18 November the South East Metro Challenge committee held their presentation day for the Spring competition. The event was held at the Ringwood Croquet Club. It was a wonderful day with plenty of food, refreshments and great fellowship between all the competition players and organisers that attended.

The Lilydale Croquet Club had a fantastic Spring season, The Handicap team finished in first place ably led by their captain Murray Howlett, they did not lose a game all season, a fantastic effort by the team.

The Level Play division 2 team also finished in first place, Alan Jones was the captain and did a great job guiding his team, with a number of his team improving their handicaps over the season.

The Level Play Division 1 team finished third. This division was very close so finishing third was a good effort considering early in the season they were down near the bottom of the ladder. Congratulations to the Ringwood Croquet Club who won this division.

The next competition season will be the Autumn season and that will start late February 2025.
