Willy Silk wins Queensland Women's Singles; Stephens' jump shot mishap

Jump shot ends in unexpected outcome

The club was offered a replacement if it could be established that a manufacturing fault was the cause.

What happened here?

Not quite the expected outcome of a jump shot, that's for sure!

Willy Silk wins Queensland Women's Singles

It is a busy time of year for Association Croquet tournaments.

Rosemary and Heather entered the Queensland Women's Singles and finished 4th and 5th, respectively.

It was hosted by Windsor Croquet Club and that club's Willy Silk was the winner. She had previously won the trophy in 2004. A good win to Willy, this year's Queensland Team Captain for the Eire Cup.

It is great to see Yuni Rowell, a relatively new player, improving so rapidly.
