Have A Go At Golf Croquet!
About
Have-a-Go at golf croquet. A chance to try croquet at a friendly and welcoming club. What is golf croquet!?! It's the best of both worlds! It's like fish n chips, or mince and pie :) ... it's golf and croquet in one awesome sport. Come try swinging a croquet mallet and give the delightfully enjoyable game of 'golf' croquet a gogo! :)
One of the main differences between croquet and golf croquet is that in croquet, the player who maneuvers the ball into the peg, wins, while in golf croquet, the goal is to strike the ball into the last hoop. All players try in successive turns to run hoop 1. As soon as any player completes the running of hoop 1, then the hoop point is scored for that side. All players then move on from where their balls currently are to contest hoop 2, and so on around the court. So each hoop is scored only once, for one side or the other. The side scoring the hoop may place one of their coloured clips on the hoop.
This free activity is for people over the age of 16 years.
Come along, and feel welcome to stay as long as you like for the day. We'll supply the croquet mallets and balls. Bring along suitable footwear to wear on the green.
This activity is part of the Porirua August Gogo Festival, please see more activities at www.joinin.nz
