‘BRIGHTON CROQUET CLUB ~ SEASON OPENING’.

Thursday, 13 August 2026

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (09:38):

Despite the rain, the members of Brighton Croquet Club welcomed Bayside councillor Robert Irlicht and me to recently open the Club’s season.

Having broken my toe half an hour prior, Robert let me win as we hit the first hoop.

The 115-year-old historic club has surged in membership to 60 members.

Thank you to Club President Bill Marks and the broader membership.
