World Ranking at 1st August 2005: 20
Few people succeed in the world without the support of those around them, particularly close family. Leo McBride, a 54 year old teacher says he will be retiring after one more year of work. The father of three acknowledges his family have been very understanding and supportive in allowing him the space to pursue his croquet dream, with the vast distances involved in moving from Tournament to Tournament in North America. That travel has not dampened either his enthusiasm or his competitive edge, having been Canadian Champion for five years and USCA Association Rules National winner on three occasions. He started playing seriously in 1979 having watched the very first Croq-Can Tournament and he has been hooked ever since. Leo says that he has played a number of sports competitively and considers croquet as challenging as any of them which will undoubtedly be the case when he takes to the Cheltenham Lawns in August amongst the world best players. |
