The Golf Croquet Selection Committee met on Monday 6 August via a tele-conference to discuss the selection of players for the 2008 Golf Croquet World Championship in South Africa. England have six places of right plus a direct invitation to Stephen Mulliner for achieving third place in the previous championship. The committee decided unanimously that four of the six places would be awarded as follows:

• Marcus Evans
• Tim King
• Ian Lines
• Chris Clarke

However there was some divergence of opinion over the other two places and the Selectors agreed that their final decision on the remaining two places would wait until the results from the Musk and Ascot Cups were available.

The decisions on the other two places and the recommended wild card list will be made and announced during the week starting 24th September 2007.

Twenty one players registered their availability for this event.
