2022
Congratulations to Heather Bennett
Quiller Barrett from the Croquet Association presented Heather with her trophy which she had earned as the most improved woman AC player in the country in 2021. This trophy is named the Steel trophy after a renowned woman player D. D. Steel who was a legendary croquet player in the 1920's.
Heather thanked all our AC players as they had helped her improve her game over the last five years. She now has a handicap of 1.
In 2021 Heather won three tournaments : Surbiton B level Advanced,
Watford B level Advanced, and
(EACF) Club Champions B level Adv section at Wrest Park. What an excellent record!

John leads Herts GC team to victory
Hertfordshire win GC Inter-Counties Division 2
Cheltenham 21-22 August and a sense of deja vu - same time, same place and, fortunately same result as, for the second year running, Letchworth's John Noble leads Hertfordshire to the top slot in Division 2 of the GC Inter-County Championship.
Hertfordshire were one of three counties to win five of their seven matches. But Herts had the better hoop score and, crucially, had also beaten second place Oxfordshire. Unlike 2020 when COVID forced the decision to block promotion and relegation between Divisions, Herfordshire and runners up, Oxfordshire, this year get the promotion they deserve. Kent and Glamorgan have been relegated to Division 2. Favourites Nottinghamshire were yet again the winners of Division 1.
The Hertfordshire team: Nick Archer, Simon Hathrell and John Taylor (Watford CC) and John Noble (Capt., Letchworth CC)
