WCF has two new members!
At the WCF Council Meeting held on 8th August 2005 two new members were admitted to membership when Norway and Finland were accepted as Observer nations.
Norwegian Croquet Federation President Tore Gulbrandsen (pictured right) said, “This is an important point in Norwegian Croquet. We have 20 clubs with over 100 members centered around the South East of Oslo. Mostly we play a ten hoop, 2 peg version of the sport, although the “Association” variation is growing in popularity. The quality of the lawns is not as good as in the UK, as you can imagine with our climate.
The Federation itself is 31 years old and later this month we will be holding our first ever Norwegian National Championship”.
The WCF now has 26 member nations.
