“It was a universal truth among males that anytime you
saw a guy get it in the nuts, you experienced a hot of
phantom pain in your own croquet set.”
J.R. Ward
Greyton Country Croquet Club started with a few friends David Kuijers, Barry Wiesner, Tim Quinlan and Doug Murray getting together on a Friday or Saturday afternoon and playing a version of Country Croquet devised by themselves and suited to their rather irregular lawns.
The venue alternated between Dave’s and Barry’s lawns.It has since evolved into a more formal game played on the slightly larger courts laid out on a newer member, Mike Goulding’s lawn. New members have been attracted and membership grew to 9 with the addition of Dave Herring, Ronnie Morrison, Jeremy O’Regan, Mike Goulding and Nick Downing.
