AC Association Croquet

The Club Association Croquet Handicap Tournament is again being run as a multiple-entry knock-out competition and combined with the qualifying stage of the All England Handicap tournament in order to produce an overall Club Handicap champion. (The draws for the All England Handicap and this tournament have also been arranged in such a way as to minimise the number of duplicated games.) The winner of the qualifying stage of the All England Handicap tournament becomes the fourth of the semi-finalists of the combined competition.

All games will be played off full bisque handicap to base 10 using current handicap on the day the game is played. Up to and including the quarter finals matches will be played as 14-point games to a time limit agreed between the players (2.5 hours if no agreement). In the semi-final and final matches will be played as 26-point games to a time limit agreed between the players (3.5 hours if no agreement).

Both players in each match are responsible for contacting their opponent to arrange the match.

Results of the matches will be updated here from time to time. They are also shown on the notice-board in the club hut. Players must enter results on their handicap cards as well.
