I started playing croquet in 2000, back then we played association croquet and ricochet.
Our coach was Dixie Spotswood who was a bit of a character.
In 2004 and 2005 we went to Orange for competition over four days.
Everyone had a great time.
A few years later we stopped playing association and started golf croquet, which isn't as strategic as association but there is still a lot of strategy there.
I have always enjoyed the game.
There have been and still are a lot of lovely people there.
I would recommend it to anyone and everyone, with no limitations.
A good thought sport.
