What is Croquet? - Croquet is an enjoyable friendly sport involving skill, tactics and strategy – it is easy to learn the basics and novices are able to begin playing an actual game within ten minutes.  It suits all ages and abilities and everyone is welcome. 

[Association Croquet and Golf Croquet are the two main variants of the game played in the UK.  Association Croquet is a complex game in which players score many hoop points in a single turn by playing breaks.  We play Golf Croquet which is a simpler shorter game in which players get one stroke per turn, and when a hoop is scored all players move on to the next one.]  

Our history – Aberystwyth Croquet Club came into being in September 2023, but our founding members played informally for two years prior to that.  2024 was our first full season as a club.

When do we play?  – Club sessions are held from 2.00pm to 4.00pm on Tuesday afternoons between April and September. Thursday afternoons will be used for friendly matches against others clubs and as an alternative club session when Tuesdays are wet.
