Bestinvest World Golf Croquet Championship to take place in July

The Bestinvest World Golf Croquet Championship will take place between 18 – 24 July 2011 at the Hurlingham and Surbiton Croquet Clubs. The event will draw the top 64 players aged from under 18 to over 60 from more than 15 countries. The winner will need to be able to consistently hit another croquet ball over 20 yards distant and run through hoops set less than 1/16 of an inch wider than the balls. All players will need on occasion to make jump shots, sometimes to clear another ball more than 10 yards away.  To see this in action, look at : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjEqZfSjhMI
