A quick and easy cache and dash near a Croquet Club.
Croquet is a satisfying sport utilising tactics and touch in equal measure. It combines strategy and precision and is a bit like snooker on grass or a combination of chess and golf. Croquet can be enjoyed by all ages and sexes on an equal basis.
Croquet consists of a few basic strokes, but like the moves in chess, once you have mastered them a complex tactical game results.
Croquet is a challenging and intriguing sport requiring tactical ability, judgment and skill rather than strength and fast reflexes. And to dispel the myth that croquet is a vicious game of hitting your opponents balls into the shrubbery, any ball leaving the lawn is immediately brought back on to the court. The game is played as singles or doubles but in either case the blue and black balls always play against the red and yellow balls. In singles, each player uses both balls, in doubles one each.
If you see anyone playing as you pick up the cache, then feel free to watch and chat to us about the game. We are a friendly group who make visitors very welcome. All you need are flat soled shoes - no special dress requirements, just dress comfortably - all equipment supplied by the club.
