For five days in late August/early September next year the Noosa Croquet Club will be one of the venues with the other croquet clubs in the region to host the National and State Championships. This exciting event will bring many of the top croquet players from right across the nation to compete at our beautiful grounds. At Noosa, these competitors will be playing on the club’s five courts which are recognised as being among the best prepared and maintained in the entire region.
In anticipation of the National tournament, and thanks to a substantial financial grant from the Noosa Council, all five courts have been renovated over recent weeks and are now at their pristine best.
These renovations have come at the close of one of the most successful years in the Club’s 30-year history. Membership numbers are at an all-time high as has been the number of inter-state and international visitors who have come to play during this time. Remarkably, not one single day was lost through rain disruption from the start of the year, and games are played seven days a week every week of the year: a ‘record’ that is likely to stand for many a year to come.
