VICTORIAN SILVER AND BRONZE MEDALS (posted 12th February 2009)
Congratulations to Colin Clark on his great win in the VCA Silver Medal over the Australia Day Weekend. Colin played 7 games and won them all - pegging out in each game. Colin has moved rapidly through the divisions and has now established himself as a very fine Association player with his handicap reduced to 4.5. This win will provide further encouragement for Colin to move higher into the ranks of the top players in Victoria.
The Bronze Medal was won by Elaine Coverdale from Essendon with another member of our club, John Grieve, being Runner-Up. Elaine and John both won 6 of their 7 games. Elaine won the event on net points and she also defeated John comfortably in their game during the event.
These two events are conducted annually by the VCA. Entry is by selection. The VCA Selection Committee choose 8 players in each event. Silver Medal entry is for players with a handicap below 6. Previous winners, and players who have represented Victoria in the past, are ineligible. The Bronze Medal is for players with a handicap range of 6-11. The events were held at Cairnlea Croquet Centre - the headquarters of the Victorian Croquet Association.
The Williamstown Croquet Club is very proud of the success of both Colin and John.
