It is with deep sadness that I have to report the passing of Harry Johnston. He passed away peacefully on Wednesday 13th May 2020 in Eyrefield Manor Nursing Home, Greystones.

He was a great character in the world of Irish Croquet and was an Honorary Vice-President of the CAI.

Due to the restrictions in place due to Covid-19, the Championships of Co Dublin and the Home Internationals this year have been cancelled.

The venue for the first ever Spain-Ireland Women’s GC match was the Villa Padierna Racquet club on the Costa del Sol, about 10k from Estepona. There were two excellent croquet lawns surrounded by tennis and padel courts, lots of palm trees and the sound of the waves breaking on the beach about 50 yards away.

The Irish Golf Croquet Team to plan against Spain next week met together to have a coaching session with Andrew Johnston. We wish them all the very best in their first international match.

The Irish Golf Croquet team are in Nelson, New Zealand,  for their participation in the World Golf Team Championships.

We wish them the best of luck in their games.
