AC Handicapping Resources

Players may wish to use the online Handicap Calculator, however, as this is not maintained by Croquet England, if there is a discrepancy with the calculation using the method described in the latest GC Rules, AC Laws and Tournament Regulations, the Croquet England method is paramount.

The following handicapping materials may be downloaded:

• AC Handicap Card - also obtainable in hard copy from the office.
• Posters for the club noticeboard:
