Lawn Upgrade

We have a new greenkeeper at Elwood.  It’s Michael Beck from Victurf Pty Ltd.

Michael’s first job is a complete renovation of our No. 1 Green at a cost of $3,520.  Works have started and hopefully we’ll be playing on it about Christmas time. 

Membership available

The Elwood Croquet Club is now recruiting new members. Croquet is an outdoor game that incorporates elements of snooker, billiards, golf and chess all in one game. Variations on the rules allow for Croquet to be played as a casual, social outdoor sport or as a strategic, competitive game requiring skill and forward thinking. It’s a fun and challenging sport for all ages. You will not need prior experience as we will provide training and equipment on the lawns. Come along and tryout any Tuesday or Saturday between 10:30 am and 2:30 pm. Your first six sessions are free and after that Club Membership is available for $100 per year, with a green fee payable of $2 per day. Just wear some sports shoes and bring along your sense of humor. Should you have any inquiries please contact Ian Davidson on tel. 9534 8786 or Hilary Elliott on tel. 9531 2399. Looking forward to seeing you on the lawns.
