Croquet is a sport suitable for ages 9 - 90 plus, with variations of the game to suit everyone.

Croquet is played on lawns (we have four beautifully manicured lawns) in a style of snooker or billiards on grass with tactical similarities to chess and stoke-making similarities to golf.

The game encompasses two main codes: the traditional Association Croquet – the original and more creative version of the game – and the very popular Golf Croquet – a more relaxed and social version of the game. Both offer tactical challenges for players of all levels and is based on a handicapping system not unlike golf. See 'Club Days' for full details.

Our season runs from early September to the beginning of May the next year - play is also availble during the Winter months, weather permitting.
