LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO DO ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON? Why not come and play croquet? Age is no restriction – it’s a game for young and old. We call it a “nice nasty” game as, if you can’t score the hoop, the idea is to try to prevent your opponent from doing so. Lots of fun is had in the process. It offers mild physical exercise in the fresh air with a little bit of brain strain! All equipment is provided and the only requirement is that you wear ENCLOSED FLAT SOLED SHOES.
