In general, you must complete a series of introductory lessons in all forms of mallet sports played at the Club prior to applying to become a member. These are conducted when appropriate numbers of people are interested and there are vacancies in the club membership. The lessons are usually conducted once or twice a year, depending on availability of places.

The format is six 90-minute sessions, with one coach to 2-6 students. The first covers an overview of mallet sports with the subsequent lessons focussing on the 3 most played codes -

·       Golf Croquet

·       Association Croquet and

·       Gateball.

During the 2025/2026 financial year the cost of the course is $120.  If your application for membership is accepted by the club committee this amount is deducted from your annual membership fee.

Equipment: CCC provides all the equipment, and has a range of mallets that can be used. The only dress stipulation is that you wear enclosed, flat-soled shoes – sneakers and runners are ideal. Shorts, slacks or leggings are preferred since you will be swinging the mallet between the legs.
