Presentation at season end final - September 2023
I had a relaxing afternoon watching the Sydenham Croquet Club end of season final - the best of three games and a closely fought contest.
Club Captain Simon won out with best newcomer Chloe and it was a real pleasure to present the awards and say a few words of support for the club. I has a chat to everyone about the second successful season at Mayow Park.
Sydenham Croquet Club are one of the oldest surviving clubs in the country, being established in 1899. Jane, pictured, conveyed to me how they have been made to feel very welcome by both The Friends of Mayow Park, and Lewisham Council, as well as Glendale, and they look forward to a long and settled future in their new home. They will start to play from April, usually on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
