"Croquet is tough. People play for months because the rules are so bizarre. Those crazy English."
~Jane Kaczmarek
It's a Lovely Day for Croquet!
The sunny summer days stretch longer and longer, making the backyard our preferred entertaining venue.
Since its start in the 1830s, croquet has always been a grand equalizer. It was one of the first modern coed sports, with men and women playing together after lunch or dinner parties. Both fine estates and city parks in the 1800s included croquet lawns, just as they would swimming pools or tennis courts.
By the 1920s and 1930s, croquet had become the most popular sport in socialite, literary, and Hollywood circles. This was truly the Golden Age of the sport.
