Fun Games on a Croquet Lawn

Running a corporate event? Hosting a school/youth group? Short on time?

Here are a few shorter games that you might like to try. Many of these help to develop key croquet skills - touch, shooting and power. Others are just for fun!

• Pirates - Go through a hoop to score a point; hit another player's ball to steal their points! Any number of people, with any capability, can play this fast, fun game. Perfect for groups and children.
• Five Hoop Croquet - A shortened game of GC (first to 3 points), with a clean and simplified lawn graphics, taking up minimum lawn space due to 5 hoops only. Perfect for corporate events or small group pay/play sessions.
• Two-Ball Match-Play - Two-ball Association Croquet (aka One-Ball), but with match-play scoring. It gets newcomers playing on the court with little-to-no instruction, and takes up minimal lawn space compared to AC, GC or One-Ball. Perfect for corporate events (as part of a mini-tournament).
• Croquet Bowls - Use your mallet to play bowls - saves on bending down! Perfect as a warm-up drill.
• Croquet Marbles - Clear the balls out of the central zone before your opponent! Perfect as a team shootout.
• Racing Croquet - Get round the course as quickly as you can! Head-to-head or against the clock. Perfect for killing spare energy - especially using the time trial version.
• Target Croquet - A penalty shootout, for croquet strokes! Great for improving the accuracy of your croquet stroke. Perfect for pair practice drills or short challenges.
