Croquet Durham

Croquet Durham operates four afternoons a week from mid April to mid September using the bowling greens at Chester-le-Street Riverside Park.
We play Golf Croquet, which is a very social activity involving moderate exercise in the open air. New recruits are always welcome, and all members have the use of our equipment as well as access to coaching from our more experienced players.
We offer a number of free introductory sessions to allow prospective members to get used to the feel of the game and hopefully take it up actively. The only requirement is the use of flat-soled shoes to help protect the lawns.
