New members (Last updated: 2011 May 17)

We are always pleased to welcome new members to the club. Please contact Jill Carpenter (01323 490750) or Hilary Smith (01323 743182) in the first instance - they will be happy to arrange an introduction and answer any questions you may have.

Coaching: If you are new to croquet you will want to take advantage of our coaching sessions. These are held every week on Tuesday mornings from 10:00 until noon (starting 2012 May 15). The sessions are designed to teach you basic proficiency in stroke production and to introduce you to the skills of break-making and tactics. Along the way there are fun games and mini-competitions.

Special rate: Beginners in their first year are entitled to an introductory subscription coupled to the coaching. The first two coaching lessons are free. The cost for the remainder of the six-week course is £30. Thereafter membership for the rest of the year is a further £30 (making £60 in all). Introductory members have full access to the lawns whenever they wish to play (tournaments and other activities permitting).
