A date clarification for the Westhampton Invitational came in after the winter issue of the USCA's Croquet News went to press. The new dates for the Westhampton Invitational are June 20-23. Full event details:
Passing of the MalletGREENWICH, CT -- After eight years as President of the Greenwich Croquet Club, Greenwich CT, Barbara Leeming (left) retired and passed the mallet to newly elected President, Lee Kennedy (right) setting a new club tradition. The mallet will be aptly named the Leeming President’s Mallet to be held by Kennedy until the next president is elected. The official ceremony took place at the club’s annual Christmas Dinner Party in Greenwich on December 14.
Other officers and directors elected included William Dordelman, Vice President; William Duncan, Treasurer; Ian Sidey, Secretary; Ann Hall Elser, Director; and Cynthia Chang Scanlan, Director. Kennedy, a resident of Sleepy Hollow NY will be the eighth president since the club was founded in 1988, and is also an original member of the Sorrento Croquet Club in Maine. More information about the club can be found at www.greenwichcroquet.com.
After playing in and covering the USCA Nine-Wicket tournament here in Kansas City, I determined that I wanted to do something to preserve the history of that event. So today, I present the Champions page on the site which also links to the list of WCF World Champions on the croquetrecords.com site and the WCF Golf Croquet Champions on the WCF website.
I will also add a U.S. Rules Champions list, but as of now, I have not yet found that information.
Bob Kroeger provided the information on the 1995 Nine-Wicket event.
