The NSW Golf Croquet Team for the 2019 Interstate Shield (Cairnlea, 11-15 September 2019) has been hard at work in intensive practice sessions (or, in the case of Alison and Jamie, competing in international competitions). Six practice days have been held, five of them at Tempe, and we gratefully acknowledge Cooks River CC for the the fast and excellently-maintained lawns. One session was held at Killara CC, whom we also thank for making their lawns available. Peter Landrebe has given generously of his time, providing expert and inspiring coaching. Read about the team members here!. It's worth noting that five of the team have been selected for the first time!
