Have you ever been curious about the game of Croquet - now is your opportunity to give it a go.

Playing croquet offers a unique blend of physical activity, strategic thinking and social interaction whether you play Association Croquet or Golf Croquet.

  • Physical activity: Croquet involves continuous movement, which can improve cardiovascular health, increase flexibility and enhance muscle strength.
  • Social interaction: The game is played by people of all genders and ages from 10 to 110.
  • Strategic thinking: Croquet requires players to think strategically as they plan their moves to outmaneuver their opponent.

Croquet is not only a fun and entertaining outdoor activity but also a fantastic way to stay active and have fun while enjoying some friendly competition.

Golf Croquet is more interactive, faster moving and easier to learn than the more strategic game of Association Croquet . Many players learn the basics of the skills needed by playing Golf Croquet before moving on to play Association Croquet.
