Passage East Wins Croquet Crown | Waterford News

Passage East stunned the field to win the inaugural intercommunity croquet tournament in Dunmore Park, overcoming a halftime deficit against favorites Dunmore East. The victory marks a milestone for South East Community Croquet (SECC), which launched community groups in Passage East, Cheekpoint, and Dunmore East in summer 2026—and aims to expand to ten more by summer 2027 with Waterford Sports Partnership support. Founder Michael Cox, named Waterford’s Volunteer of the Year, says the real triumph is uniting neighbors through sport, emphasizing SECC’s mission to simplify community sports participation while boosting social, mental, and physical well-being. With plans to make Waterford Ireland’s croquet capital, SECC is building momentum to bring croquet to every parish with active community development.
