June Video of the Month



I'm getting ready to embark on a four-day practice session of six-wicket up in Parkville, Missouri. This six-wicket video seemed appropriate. On top of that, I really liked the homemade deadness board.

Croquet Network Back to Blogger

After a little bit of jumping around, Croquet Network is back on blogger. The site just didn't merit the pay model over on squarespace. Expect posting to start flowing again soon.

May Video: Mohamed Nasr by Bob Kroeger



I find this video to be very interesting for two reasons:

-- The way he opens his feet during the huge back swing
-- Notice during the slo-mo on the first shot that the mallet follows through all twisted, yet the shot is still successful

May Links: Sonoma-Cutrer and Kentucky Nine-Wicket

A beautiful club site designed in WordPress, which allows for an RSS feed that people can subscribe to with their iGoogle, My Yahoo or MSN pages. The feed for Sonoma-Cutrer comes in on the Croquet Network feed below. More croquet sites need to use a blog platform (Squarespace, WordPress, TypePad, Blogger) for their sites. The updating is easy and the RSS feed capability keeps more players and fans in touch with the site.
