Kathy Vincent It’s good to have a sport to keep your mind and body fit. Croquet is a great sport for that very reason. Out in the fresh air, plenty of walking, mind busy working overtime to work out what your opponent will do next and what you will do too. It doesn’t matter if you play Golf Croquet or Association Croquet or Ricochet or Gate ball they are all good sports to keep you active. But there is more to the sport than how to play. It is important to look after your players and make sure they are OK. Recently the Croquet Club had a hands-on demonstration of how to use the defibrillator. Heart attacks don’t only happen in the older generation anyone of us could have that misfortune. So, what would you do about it? Rachael Fitzgerald from Direct EMS gave a presentation to the Croquet Club with lots of handson training. She was excellent and very informative. I didn’t know that you can contact emergency services by dialling 112 wherever you are in the world! Rachael gave her service free as a community service. 17 members all took part, and everyone felt they had benefited from the training. Perhaps it would be a good idea for all sports clubs to make sure their members would know just what to do in this sort of emergency.
