The Third annual Victoria Snake Croquet inter club tournament was held Saturday, March 23 and 24th.

It started out raining and lasted all Saturday with 16 teams playing at two different locations – eight teams at Victoria Bowls and Croquet club and eight more teams at Oak Bay Lawn Bowling Club. Sunday, the second day, featured the top eight teams in a double-knockout format with the final four teams playing for first, second, third and fourth.

First: Pierre Dunn and Brent Jansen (Oak Bay)
Second: Ralph Street and Rolf Bertsch (Victoria)
Third: Lorne Oakes, Donna Del Torre/Peter Rassenti (Victoria)
Fourth: John Dolman, Jim, Howard, and Brian Sandercock (Oak Bay)

It was a very successful tournament, and all enjoyed. Players came from lower Vancouver Island and as far away as Saturna Island to play in the tournament.

A special thank you to all involved that made this happen. Thank you to Donna Del Torre for arranging the use of your Victoria club.
