2025 CAQ Golf Croquet Development Squad

Published Sat 28 Jun 2025

The GC Development Squad is chosen from nominations by Club GC Captains at the start of each year. Usually about 20-24 players are selected. The Squad comes together about 4 or 5 times per year for coaching sessions. This year so far the Squad members have benefitted from advice by Gordon Giles, Gaye Pitman, Deirdre Giles, Mary McMahon, Murray Tinker, Ross & Helen Rillie; Bob Martin will conduct the next session. The Squad also had a video session with a leading Sports Psychologist.

There is no guarantee that any Development Squad member will become a State Team player. However the assistance this scheme offers certainly helps player development. We also hope that the Dev Squad members take the lessons and information back to their own clubs.
