Kenilworth maintained their form to beat Himley in the West Midlands Golf Croquet League – 13 games to 5.

The current hot dry conditions provided a good test of Kenilworth's recently installed watering system. What a boon it has proven to be. The lawns were in excellent condition.

Himley’s number one, Paul Garrett won all his games but Himley were only able to win one more singles game. Kenilworth’s team strength was too good and took the singles 11 games to 5 and also won both doubles.
