The Northern Tasmanian Croquet Centre event was held in light rain on Saturday and delayed on Sunday morning after heavy rain during the night.
As expected the double round robin in division one was close.
John Colquhuon, of Eastern Shore, and Graeme Price (St Leonards) played consistently to win with eight matches from Ruth McKean and Rod Tait, of St Leonards (seven wins).
The B division single round robin event was decided on the last games with John Heathcote and Jill Nisbet, of East Launceston, eventual winners (four wins) from Anne Hughes (Royal Park) and Robin O'Reilly (Country Club Devonport) with three wins.
Expressions of interest are being sought for the golf croquet coaching on December 11 at 10am with state coach Sue Beattie. Email lee-turner@bigpond.com.
The open, B and C grade pennants are to be held in late January.
Clubs are requested to nominate teams with the coordinator Ruth McKean at northeskcc@gmail.com.
