Mid Canterbury brothers Logan and Reece McCorkindale stomped the doubles event at the South Island Association Croquet Championships in Nelson last week.

The pair won four of their five games, and had an impressive net hoops count of +59 en route to the title.

Logan also went on an unbeaten run to clinch the singles event which sees the local croquet ace in possession of both association and golf croquet South Island open titles.

It comes a week after the pair dominated the Windsor Richards Association Croquet handicap and Open Association Croquet Championship events in Oamaru.

Logan’s win in the singles came off the back of a five-from-five run in the round robin phase before knocking over Nelson’s Brian Winslang in the semi-final. He then accounted for Greg Bryant, of the West Coast, winning in straight games 26-10, 26-12.
