WCF Golf Croquet WTC: Day Four
WCF GC World Team Championship: Day One
Good news, our lads beat Sweden on Sunday in the opening day of WCF Golf Croquet World Team Championship block play with a 4-2 score. Today we play the Irish, which will be a really big game as explained below.
USA v. Sweden
Our play today was solid, but not spectacular. Ben, Danny and David were solid in winning their singles matches. Our doubles teams split, with Ben/Sherif winning their match but Danny/David losing their match. The highlight in doubles was when Ben made hoop 9 from the boundary line with a two bounce jump shot that took us to 5-4 in game two of the doubles.
Croquet Video: CNN On South African Croquet
CNN posted this piece on croquet in South Africa that features Victor DlaDla. No embed was available and there is a 20 second ad, but it's worth the wait.
