Learn Croquet

 Croquet is one of the few sports that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, regardless of their background or gender. It provides an equal playing field for everyone involved, whether they are teenagers, retired individuals, single, or part of a family. Not only is croquet easy to learn, but it also offers a mental challenge while providing a safe and injury-free way to exercise the body. Whether played socially or competitively, croquet helps individuals meet their exercise goals recommended by health professionals, all while satisfying their competitive spirit.

Among the various codes played, the most popular one is Golf Croquet. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with golf other than being a social activity that offers its fair share of challenges. Golf Croquet, also known as "Snooker on Grass," is easy to learn but allows for the use of cunning tactics to outsmart opponents. It serves as the primary game played at Dubbo Croquet Club.

Another code that presents a particularly challenging experience is Association Croquet. This code demands a high level of skill and strategic thinking. Additionally, Ricochet combines the skills and tactics of both Golf and Association Croquet.
