Congratulations to Addison Matthews, U21 GC Australian Open champion.

Runner-up was Ethan Gumbrell, with Curtis Mead in third place.

Well played to all competitors. Some truly fantastic croquet was on display throughout all the competitions.

Thank you to the referees for all your long hours on the courts.

Appreciation also goes to the lawn maintenance and hoop-setting crews, and of course the magnificent providores. Eildon Croquet Club put on an excellent national tournament we can be proud of.
