The Johnson Memorial competition started in 1987. A shield, the Johnson Memorial Trophy, was donated by their family to commemorate Rhoda and Eddy Johnson. Rhoda was a President of the CCA and South Island Vice President of the New Zealand Croquet Council.

It is an Association Croquet Handicap Doubles Tournament generally played over a number of Saturday mornings in the first half of the season followed by a set of play-offs. It often allows an inexperienced player to be mentored by an experienced player to assist in learning tactics and stroke play.
