Carol Hayward 2020

The 2020 Carol Hayward was played at United on six Tuesday mornings between the 28th February and the 17th March.  Generally the weather was fine making this a relaxed competition with a two-and-a-half hour, 18-point, handicap Association Croquet game interrupted by morning tea particularly enjoyable.

The flexible Swiss format allowed the fifteen players to miss one of the six games but still be a prize winner.
Covid-19 prevented Lynne Bretherton of our generous sponsor the Margaret Stoddart Retirement Village from presenting the prizes.

Before the final round Steve Costigan was unbeaten but Ian Hamill won his game to clinch third placing with four wins in five games.  Steve and Bruce McLay with five wins in six games were equal first.

Joint winners Steve Costigan and Bruce McLay with the manager, Tony O’Donnell
