The USCA 9-Wicket Croquet website has posted part one of a two-part interview with MCA President Dylan Goodwin. You can read part one here:
LEAWOOD, KS -- We have a good team of five referee and setup volunteers for the Sunflower Wickets GC Benefit on Friday, June 6. We could use one to two more volunteers. If you would like to help, contact Dylan Goodwin at kccroquetclub@gmail.com
LEE'S SUMMIT, MO -- Final details are now in for the first event of the 2014 MCA Nine-Wicket Series. The event starts at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 17 ay Howard Park in Lee's Summit, Missouri. The address is 3498 NE Independence Avenue and entry is $25 with lunch included, but MCA members are discounted to $15 per entry.
We plan to run Pro, Gold and a new Silver Division intended for beginner level players. The number of divisions will be based on player sign-ups.
To register or for questions contact tournament manager Dylan Goodwin at kccroquetclub@gmail.com
LEAWOOD, KS -- For MCA members that have not signed up for 2014, a PDF form is now available. You have the option of mailing the form to the address included or emailing it to kccroquetclub@gmail.com. Remember that MCA membership entitles you to discounted MCA tournament fees as well as free entry into the MCA Championship for qualified players.
The form also includes the option to pre-pay for MCA tournaments. This is strictly for your convenience and it is perfectly acceptable to sign up for and pay for events as you go.
LEAWOOD, KS -- The MCA has launched a basic nine-wicket ranking system to be utilized for block seeding. The system is based on win percentage and average wickets scored per game. The ranking system is an additional tool to be utilized by tournament managers for seeding blocks at MCA nine wicket events. The rankings system is based on games played within a division, so it is possible for a player to carry a ranking in multiple divisions.
TOPEKA, KS -- MCA representatives Dylan Goodwin and Bill Berg travelled to Topeka on March 14 to meet with Frank Chaffin and Keath Allen regarding the development of a croquet club that would operate next to the Hy-Vee on Wanamaker Road.
Chaffin owns the internet radio station WREN based out of Topeka and he is interested in developing a club to provide a good interactive activity for families and friends in the area. WREN Radio would be the primary sponsor for the proposed club.
KANSAS CITY, MO -- The Midwest Croquet Association announced yesterday that the MCA Nine-Wicket Series will visit Tulsa, Oklahoma on Saturday, June 14. The event will be part of the season points series and was enthusiatically embraced by members of the Tulsa Croquet Club. The agreement was reached late Friday afternoon and more details are to follow.
"We are extremely pleased to add the event to the series," said MCA President Dylan Goodwin. "This truly gives the series a more regional feel and now we're excited to lock in a few dates in Kansas."
Goodwin indicated that the MCA was interested in four to five regular season events to precede the Championship event in September.
BELTON, MO -- Bill Berg reported yesterday that an agreement to hold the 2014 MCA Championship at Markey Park in Belton, MO with the Belton Parks and Recreation Department has been reached. The event will be held Saturday, September 13 and will be for the top qualifiers in the respective MCA Nine-Wicket Series points races. Players must be members to participate in the MCA Championship, but there is no entry fee.
The event will be one week prior to the USCA's Nine Wicket National Championship which is set for September 19-21 in the Kansas City area. The MCA Championship should provide a good warm-up for that event.
Behind the scenes, the MCA is also close to announcing another regular season event. The target for 2014 is four regular season events in addition to the MCA Championship.
