Provisional 2020 Croquet League Fixtures

4 January 2020 by Chris Alvey

The provisional list of fixtures for the 2020 federation croquet leagues has now been circulated to all clubs that have entered.  Team captains have until 7th March to discuss with their opposite number any changes they may wish to make – the final fixture list will be issued after the federation Spring meeting.

For 2020 we again have 49 teams, he same number as in 2019. This year however we have Llanfairfechan making a welcome return to the Short Lawn league and Westmorland joining the Level Play GC league for the first time. Unfortunately, Southport and Culcheth have both decided not to enter the level play GC league this season.

The season gets underway on Sunday 19th April and will run through until Sunday the 11th October. Trophies will be awarded to winning teams at the Federation Annual General meeting on the 14th November.

The fixtures will also be published on this website – see the Federation Calendar on the home page or the individual league pages.

Contact details of Team Captains can also be found on the Who’s Who Page and the individual league pages.

Will you still read your Croquet Gazette ?

28 December 2019 by Chris Alvey

As announced on page 3 of the November edition of the Croquet Gazette, from 1st January 2020 automatic entitlement to the Croquet Gazette in paper form for Standard Members comes to an end.

Standard Members will remain entitled to access the Gazette on the Croquet Association website and will be notified by email when a new edition is published. Standard Members will now only get a paper Gazette until the end of the year in which they join,

If you would like to continue to receive the Gazette in its paper form, you can do so by becoming either a Supporter Member for £18 p.a. or a Premium Member for £38 p.a. The latter category is really for those who wish to play in tournaments that are in the CA fixtures calendar, as it gives cheaper entry  and a higher priority.

We hope you have enjoyed getting the Gazette and will want to both continue to do so and support the work of your Association, at the same time taking out the appropriate subscription. You can do this easily by following the link below, login to the CA website, and then click the view icon (spectacles) against the CA membership line.  There is then a ‘Change Membership/Options’ button.

Your Standard Membership will be renewed automatically if you are recorded as a Primary member of a Member Club. Therefore, please check, and if needs be, amend by using the ‘Add Membership’ button, along with checking that your personal details are correct, including your handicap.

If you need any help, please contact the CA Office.
