We have both Competitive and Leisure tournaments for game play and the Porch Party for those would rather swig refreshments than swing a mallet.

Strut your style both on and off the court for the win. Do you think you are fashionable enough to win be best dressed prize? Dress in your finest game whites and show your colorful style to stand out to be selected as one of the fashionable finalists!

Need to dust off those mallets or learn to finesse your game play? We’ve got you covered— Join us for after-work food and drinks at Croquet Roquet on Thursday, May 19th, where our experts will give you pointer, or teach you the rules! Get acquainted with the grounds, and you can also seek out a partner for the August 12th date!
