We are looking for one more member to join us for the Inter-livery Golf Croquet Day on Saturday 15th June at the Sussex County Croquet Club, in Southwick near Hove.
Experience is not necessary as a training session is given at the start of the day. All equipment is also provided. And if you have only played Association Croquet in the past, that’s fine too … Golf croquet is just a faster game.
Tea and coffee is available on arrival at 9:30am, there is an excellent lunch, and afternoon tea included in the price of £55 per head. There is also a bar for the purchase of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks throughout the day which will finish around 4:30pm.
If you are interested in joining Malcolm Bacchus, the Senior Warden Jonathan Grosvenor and Lynn Pearcy
for what is always a delightful day in the company of members of other Liveries,
please drop an email to Malcolm at mgbacchus@nullbaccma.co.uk as soon as possible please.
Time: 9.30am-4.30pm
Date: Saturday 15 June
Price: £78 (to include tea/coffee, game play, lunch and afternoon tea)
Contact: Malcolm Bacchus mgbacchus@nullbaccma.co.uk
The Worshipful Company of Glovers of London organises the Inter-Livery Golf Croquet Competition. Whilst it is an open competition, a maximum of 36 teams (with two people in each team) can be accommodated, which may mean limiting the number of entries that can compete in the beautiful surroundings of Sussex County Croquet Club, in the village of Southwick, to the west of Brighton.
The competition offers liverymen and their guests the opportunity to play golf croquet in the company of others and, although competition for the Glovers’ Cup is intense, the day offers those less familiar with the sport the chance to try their hand as well in the Inter Livery Challenge for first-time or occasional players for whom explanation and direction will be provided.
With its eleven immaculate lawns and pollarded lime trees, Southwick is one of the most prestigious croquet venues in the world. The Golf Croquet World Championships were held at this venue twice in recent years. Lunch will be provided.
