Terry Kearney wins Bertram Plate at Caloundra Classic, plus one more from Caloundra

The Caloundra Classic is not just for our world ranked players, it is also for our aspiring Div 2 players. There are very few opportunities for these players to play with and learn from the best.

Mike and Sue Bertram have donated a trophy and cash award to recognise the best performing Div 2 player in the Caloundra Classic.

Terry Kearney from Kingaroy Croquet and Toowoomba Croquet Clubs won the Bertram Plate. Congratulations Terry.
