High Wycombe Croquet Club has two excellent new lawns at Hazlemere Recreation Ground.
We aim to promote croquet at all levels. We welcome newcomers, and run coaching sessions.
We also run / participate in leagues and tournaments for all levels of player from beginner to expert.
Maybe your idea of croquet comes from Alice in Wonderland, or is associated with genteel tea with the landed gentry.
The real game of croquet is a far cry from that. It is easy to get started, but requires a high level of physical and tactical skill to become an expert.
Croquet is a tactical struggle with each player trying to manoeuvre both their own and opponent's balls to make points for their side, whilst restricting their opponent's chances of doing the same by careful positioning of the balls at the end of the turn.
Maybe you've played croquet in the garden and it's got you interested?
Maybe you want to try out a new sport - ideal for people who are competitive but not necessarily athletic.
No good at football - maybe croquet is right for you?!
