Invictus Caloundra Classic underway with 22 triple peels

The Invictus Caloundra Classic is underway. 18 of Australia's top AC players have met in Caloundra for this 4-day Battle of the Giants of our sport. Great players, 6 terrific courts, wonderful sportsmanship and a feast for lovers of Association Croquet.

Thank you to Invictus Croquet and Borger Cranes for enabling us to bring back the Caloundra Classic.

Triple peels are a symbol of top-level play, and in the first 2 days we have seen 22 of them. Amazing stuff to watch.

Why are you not here? In the next 2 days someone will rise to the top and take a trophy that has been fought over for decades by some wonderful players from Australia and New Zealand.

If you can't come and see for yourself, many breaks have been recorded and the finals will be replayed on YouTube. Keep watching this page for details.

Check out the location, photographed by drone at dawn after the courts were prepared and while players were practising. There was a little dew on the grass, but it soon vanished on this 25 degree Celsius winter's day.
