Games in which a ball had to be knocked around a course of hoops with a mallet
were popular in the
seventeenth and eighteenth
century France.
Croquet
became the sports craze of Victorian England.
The
Nine Wicket
Croquet
is
naturally a less formal game than the six-wicket versions of the sport such as
Association Croquet.
We are a club playing extreme nine wicket Croquet
