Re: [AUS-Croquet] Advanced Play

Ernie

The question is whether , for fourth Div , your tournaments are
advanced or level play. In Vic the tradition has been to only have
level...which in my view is not helpful from a learning perspective.
having been instrumental in moving Vic from half to full courts for
this group for tournament play (with no adverse consequences) I'm now
looking at this next step.

Thanks John and Kay.

What about NSW and Tas?
