Short Croquet

This one-day course is for AC and Short Croquet players with handicaps in the SC 4-8 or AC 12-20 range. After a brief clarification of the laws specific to SC, the day will look in detail at a range of opening moves and responses to them; rules of thumb for making best use of bisques; tactics when playing against players with mandatory peels; and specific Short Croquet tactics including exploiting and avoiding wiring lifts and 4-ball breaks with no pivot. The day will include detailed explanations with examples, practice on the lawn, and a good range of recommended exercises for later consolidation and practice.

This one-day course is open to both AC and GC players, but should appeal particularly to GC players who want their skills to give them a head start in Association Croquet. It is also for coaches looking for a straightforward way of introducing this accessible version of AC into their own clubs. The day covers distinctive aspects of the AC game including croquet shots and building a break; it offers a full introduction to Association Croquet and aims to help participants play with understanding and pleasure. The day will include guidance on how the skills of AC can be easily learned, a supported game, and plenty of opportunity for individual help and guidance.
