GC representatives, a Friendship Day win and Christmas in July at Eildon

A big congratulations to our Queensland GC representatives Graham McLean, Bob Martin (manager), Megan Stuart and Marilyn (1st reserve). Do us proud in Adelaide along with the rest of the Queensland team!

Ros Crowe has been appointed National Gateball Co-ordinator. Well done to her! The whole sport will now get to benefit from her enthusiasm for the Gateball code. A great thing!

Marilyn Nelson travelled to Northern Rivers to participate in the NSW Open GC Division 2 Doubles and Singles competitions. A successful trip, Marilyn won the plate with her partner Leone from Casino in the Doubles and finished 3rd in the Singles. Queenslander!

Southport came and visited us for the annual inter-club Friendship Day. High spirited play across 3 divisions of GC resulted in lots of smiles and Croquet being the winner. Sandwiches were had at lunch and a trophy was won by Eildon.

A very Curry Christmas in July was held as a fundraiser for our charity, Redcliffe Headspace. Lots of food and fun was had by members for the worthy causes of taste buds and charity.
