Eight Player Croqet Set

A lovely new 8 player Croquet set in a limited edition of 500 sets, it allows up to eight players to play together, or to play two separate games simultneously. There are four of our English sports ash Woodstock mallets, handmade to our 100 year old pattern, two Corrigrip ash mallets with our famous grip, and two Intermediate mallets in a similar style, suitable for the slightly younger player. Contained in two zipped green canvas carriers are the eight first and second colour grooved Challenge balls, and the hoops are the extra heavyweight Hampton models which allow the easier playing of wire shots; also included is our wooden hoop mallet. The gold lined eight colour winning post with its clip peg is hand painted in bands to show the correct order of play. Also included in this eight player croquet set are eight hoop clips to mark a player’s advance round the course, eight ball markers to record a balls position when removed, and four court corner flags to define each corner of the lawn.

Jaques comprehensive Rulebook with an illustration of the famous Tissot painting of a girl playing croquet contains all the basic rules of croquet, plus handy tactical tips and tricks.

Everything is easily stored away in a beautiful blue pine eight player croquet set box in the traditional Jaques design with a lovely leather logo, reinforced steel corners, Jaques' proprietary limited swing hinges, and lockdown enamelled steel catches.
