About Croquet

There are two forms of croquet played at Southern Highlands Croquet Club:

  • Golf Croquet: Simple rules, with most people starting here. A game takes between 30 – 60 minutes.

  • Association Croquet: More complex rules, with a full game typically taking up to about two and a half hours.

While we are primarily a ‘social’ club, we also offer players opportunities to participate in more competitive games (annual Championship, Exeter Cup, Nancy Dane Trophy, Autumn Cup).  Externally, teams participate in the Regional Pennants covering Illawarra and the ACT.  More recently players have represented the Club at tournaments elsewhere in the State. SHCC has also started to offer its lawns for use by Croquet NSW for some of its competitions.

New players are paired with an experienced player who will explain and demonstrate the various shots and strategies available, and who will ensure the new players transition to active membership of the Club.
