Government relaxations of lockdown rules imposed due to the COVID-19 epidemic have enabled reopening of the club, with some constraints to reduce infection risks, and this has been met with enthusiasm by members. The online booking system has been well received and used. As well as lots of club friendly games being played:

• The junior club has restarted on a weekly basis,
• Coaching courses and activities are being offered at various levels,
• Introductory coaching for new members begins on Monday 16th June,
• Club competitions have been reintroduced, and 
• We are exploring the possibility of holding tournaments again.

Lawns 7 and 8 now have hoop holes drilled for half sized lawns which will be useful where full sized lawns are less appropriate; e.g. for Junior Club, Beginner Coaching and Short Croquet.

Burgeoning interest in croquet! Get your name down to learn with Nottingham Croquet Club.

Croquet is one of 8 specific sports which can restart under the current relaxation of lockdown guidance, and there seems to be lots of interest in learning this fascinating, tactical and skilful sport.

Nottingham Croquet Club has been offering Open Days for people new to the game and coaching courses for beginners for over 90 years. We currently are unable to hold group events, but if you’re interested in taking up the game, please register your details using the Enquiries page of this website and we will get back to you.
