Openshaw Shield – Silent Auction to Raise Funds

Croquet Tasmania has agreed to run the international event The Openshaw Shield from the 17 to 23 February 2025 at the Northern Croquet Centre at St. Leonards.

The best eight, Tier 1 Golf Croquet teams in the world will be competing in what should be an exciting and skilful week of croquet.

Unfortunately, these events are expensive to organise and run and some fund-raising measures are being implemented to defray the costs which are expected to be around $40,000.

Whilst sponsorship and other revenues are expected, Graham and Jane Hyland, members of the Kingston and Sandy Bay clubs, have generously offered to organise and run a Silent Auction to assist in fund-raising.

Details of the auction are on the Croquet Tasmania website croquettas.com/fundraiser-silent-auction-2024/ where you can see the items donated by members and bidding details.

Whilst there is already a very impressive array of items to auction, local Clubs and members to requested to further contribute to the auction. It is still not too late to do so and anything that you could offer would be most appreciated, plus obviously your bids on current items would be great.

Email the TCA Treasurer, Jane Hyland on treasurercroquettas@gmail.com with details of donations (including photos).

Please help Croquet Tasmania successfully run this event.
