Product Description
Croquet is thought to have originated in the 1300’s in France, when shepherds used crooks to hit balls through bent willow branches. The LG4 set comes with everything necessary for an official 6-wicket tournament game or the more familiar 9-wicket backyard game. Set includes 4 laminated solid wood mallets with 38 inch handles wrapped with perforated leather grips, inlaid sight lines and brass reinforcing bands that are milled into the heads near the points of contact. The 4 croquet balls are biaxially milled to make deep diamond grooves on their surfaces; this gives the balls traction to follow a course on grass. Wickets (9) are fashioned from 7/16 inch powdercoated solid steel rod, not from coat hanger wire. They are marked to show how deep to set them into the ground to hold the proper 12 inch vertical clearance when firmly fixed. The 2 wooden stakes used in the nine wicket game to establish the finish and turning points have a detachable black spire to hold the four color coded marker clips used to document the progress of the game. Use the rubber headed hammer to fix the pegs, stakes, flags and wickets into the ground since the mallets should never be used for this purpose. The set comes with the official USCA rules for both a 6 and 9 wicket game. The three zipper tough corded nylon bag holds everything and has handles and a shoulder strap for storage and carrying.
