SAWTELL Croquet Club recently raised $660 for the Cancer Council Biggest Morning Tea.
The Biggest Morning Tea at Sawtell Croquet Club turned into the “Longest Morning Tea”, due to the inclement weather.
The club’s Biggest Morning Tea was held over five days, with events, activities, and a morning tea on each day, which gave all members of the club an opportunity to participate.
Club President Jamie Mair said the amount raised was a pleasing result for a club of their size.
Sawtell Croquest Club is the only club in the Coffs Coast region to play all three codes of croquet.
The club also held their Ricochet Handicap Singles Club Championship last month.
Gary Urquhart was the Division 1 winner, and Wendy Forbes was the runner up.
Elaine Hulbert was the Division 2 winner, and Helen Chambers was the runner up.
The club also recently held its Association Friendly Day, in which they invited all clubs in the region to attend.
A sunny day greeted players and the courts were dry, as the locals performed well on the day winning all matches.
Sawtell Croquet Club will be holding a Croquet State of Origin challenge on Tuesday, 17 June, the day before the second State of Origin match.
