Lilydale Croquet Club walked away from the Autumn Handicap Season as winners when they competed for the title on Thursday 25 May.
Taking on fierce competitors in Ringwood Croquet Club, Lilydale and Ringwood went head to head in the grand final, with the lunch time break giving Ringwood the upper hand.
Lilydale, however, came back with a doubles win from Murray Howlett and Alan Jones, as well as a singles win from Craig McCracken to take home the Shield 4 games 35 hoops to Ringwood 2 games 31 hoops.
Here’s a selection of photos of the team in action as they worked towards the victory last month.
