Croquet Section
Golf Croquet is played by four players competing in pairs over a short course of nine or a long course of thirteen hoops. When more than four members are hoping to play the shorter game is played.
Two short games can be played at the same time enabling eight people to enjoy playing for between twenty and thirty minutes.
Members ensure that everyone present is able to play and to mix up partners to provide variety in the games.
