2021 USCA Florida GC Regional

Cheryl Bromley | Published on 4/28/2021

USCA Florida Golf Croquet Regional Tournament Wrap-up

National Croquet Center, West Palm Beach, FL

April 22 – 25, 2021

 

This popular event went through a number of changes during the planning stages, including being delayed from its regular dates in early January, to a change of venue, and finally was fortunate to find its place at the NCC in late April. 

 

The 8th annual USCA FL GC Regional registration filled up quickly as many players were very eager to get back onto the GC tournament circuit.  Between doubles and singles, a record 52 players participated and the weather, along with the competition, was sensational.

 

There was a noticeable groundswell of up-and-coming players whose games are rapidly improving and challenging anyone who dares to get in their way.

 

The first day of the event featured a doubles Knock-out and Compass Consolation in Championship and First flight.  Congratulations to the following doubles teams!

 

Championship Flight Doubles Champions:      Sherif Abdelwahab & Hal Denton

                                                      Finalists:      Macey White & John Warlick

                                                    3rd Place:      Cheryl Bromley & Steve Jackson

                                                Consolation:      Paul Fecteau & Tom Hankey

 

First Flight Doubles Champions:      Jeff Morrison & Clint Fowlkes

                                      Finalists:      Priscilla Flowers & Caryl Firth

                                    3rd Place:      Vicky Naranjo & Pamela Heyer

                                Consolation:      Bill & Laura Walker

 

The next three days were filled with singles matches as players were grouped into six blocks of eight players in three flights. After players played each person in their respective blocks, the top four players from each block moved into the Quarterfinals Knock-out and the remaining players in the blocks moved into the Plate competition.

 

For the first time ever in a Golf Croquet Regional, four of the eight players who battled in the Championship flight Knock-out were women!  Congrats ladies!

 

Courtesy of Tate and Cami Russack, a brand new custom Russack Mallet was auctioned off, along with various items from the USCA and NCC, with the proceeds going toward the new perpetual Florida GC Regional trophy.  A special thank you also to George Fiegel for creating the tournament awards for this year’s winners.

 

Congratulations to our 2021 Singles Champions!
