Inaugural Millenium Golf Thunders In!

6 July 2008 by Jean Hargreaves

North West Fed Millenium Golf Croquet Handicap Just Survives (06/07/08) by Jean Hargreaves

This new tournament was played at Heaton Park. Eight players participated representing 5 clubs. All played all with double-banking. Several games went to time. At the end of round 6 we had 1 player who had won 5 games and 2 who had won 4 games. One of the latter was due to play the former in the last round so it could have worked out that 3 players could have tied at the end of round 7. However, the eventual winner, Alan Mayne from Bowdon, won his last game on the Golden Hoop, making 6 wins out of 7 games. We had 3 players in joint second place, each with 4 wins. Despite the heavy showers at intervals during the day a good time was had by all, and we have been asked “when is the next one”. We managed to finish the tournament and do the presentation just before the lawns were flooded with a tremendous thunderstorm!
