Blogger was fun, but pretty slow and ineffective, so I jumped ship and moved the site to Squarespace. I use the Squarespace service for many of my other sites, so I knew it was time to upgrade. The reality is a good croquet site like this deserves nothing but the best and this platform will allow for many features to be added. Expect new additions to roll out as they become available.
Anyway, enough about the site -- we're knee deep into croquet season and hopefully you've been able to get your share of mallet play in this year. We finally got an official tournament underway at my club that enjoyed some warm weather and a dry field. Standing around in wet shoes was getting a little old.
In addition, I've been playing some backyard Golf Croquet with friends and as I've mentioned before -- I'm hooked. Not sure if I can make it through the season without setting up an impromptu golf croquet event.
On the national scene, I'm finding more and more croquet sites that are offering blog type platforms. I think this is a key for growth as they generally offer RSS feeds. In fact, you'll see in the left column we're getting more and more sites into the network feed, which is about the most useful tool I can offer. Good stuff as it's becoming easier to stay up to date. So, it looks like Web 2.0 is catching on in the croquet world, and I'll feature some of the blog types site later this month in the club/links department.
That pretty much kicks things off for June. Hope you enjoy the site this month and I'll leave you with this link to a blog post on what is great about croquet.
Sincerely,
