David McCoy, President, Croquet Enterprises and Acting General Manager, National Croquet Center

After retiring from a 34-year career as an executive with Exxon International in New York City, David became a permanent Florida resident and a “snowbird.” In 2002 he was talked into playing croquet at the Palm Beach Polo Club. He has been “hooked” ever since, now playing in Championship flight. Elected to the Croquet Foundation of America in 2009, he volunteered and was elected to lead the NCC management team. He plans to develop The National Croquet Center into a more vibrant and successful mega-center for croquet, with an active and growing local and national membership.
