 AC Singles 29th April - 01/05/2026 21:32

A small field of 8 players took part in the AC 14 point handicap event yesterday. Lovely sunshine but biting, cold wind.

The event was run with 2 blocks of 4 players, followed by a final round for positions. The winner of Block 1 was Nigel Billingham with 3 pegged out wins. Block 2 was very close but was won by 1 point by Simon Turner who had one pegged out win.

Simon played very good croquet in the final against Nigel, and ended up the winner 14-5. Congratulations to Simon with an excellent display of AC croquet shots and breaks.

Mike Akester beat Tony Marjoram for 3rd place.

Well played everyone and thank you for supporting AC. Thanks of course to Ben for pristine lawns as ever.

Do please take part to keep AC going at Southwick. Our next event is a Two Legged AC competition on 3rd July. Each pair plays 3 rounds and each round has 2 singles and ASD. All 14 point. Enter now on Club's website.
