Monday Morning Croquet Play

Everything You Need to Know

Players arrive ready for a morning of croquet on the lawns, rolling balls across the grass and lining up shots with mallets. The session mixes casual games with more competitive matches, suiting those who enjoy both relaxed play and a bit of friendly rivalry. Youth, adults and seniors all take part, with experienced members happy to guide newcomers through the basics or join in doubles games.

The group meets every Monday morning for regular club play. Sessions focus on active participation, strategy discussion between rounds and plenty of conversation on the sidelines. Whether refining technique or simply enjoying time outdoors, attendees find a steady rhythm that fits weekly schedules.

• Practising shots and learning new croquet tactics during games

Visitors are welcome to join these weekly gatherings without needing prior membership.
