2023 ACA President’s AC Eights 6-9 October, Cairnlea Melbourne Victoria.
The ACA AC Selectors call for Expressions of Interest ( EoI ) by all interested Association Croquet players who would like to play in this prestigious event.
Entries: EoI can be sent to ACA Events Peter Freer pfreer@netspeed.com.au with a closing date of 31 Aug 2023.
Depending on entry numbers late entries may be accepted to fill the four Eights but better to be safe and enter early.
- : The event will be four open Eights of 8 players in each event, but the 4th Eight will be a Women's event if the EoI’s received make this a better format for all the players entering. All Eights will be a double round robin of single games. Each Eight will be filled based on players grade on 31 Aug 2023, but there is also a provision in each of the 4 events that up to 2 wildcards may be chosen outside of the players current grade.
- : All players in Australia can EoI, with a requirement to have played a minimum 20 games in the preceding 12 months up to 31 August 2023. Players who have not played 20 games are still welcome to EoI and be considered for a wildcard.
Entry Fee: $300, with a travel reimbursement scheme operating after ACA costs are deducted.
Croquetscores: EoI’s will be placed on croquetscores as received. Please check https://croquetscores.com/2023/ac/australia-presidents-eights/eoi to make sure your name is on the list of entrants, as confirmation that your EoI has been received.
