Jaques have never lost sight of the importance of the game craftsmanship over 150 years of manufacturing garden games. That legacy is still evident today, now harnessed to modern methods. Jaques garden games represent much more than just gaming, they represent a lifestyle.

Outdoor games

Of all Jaques' outdoor games, Croquet is probably the most famous. The game of Croquet was introduced by John Jaques II at the Great Exhibition of London in 1851. Because of the huge success of garden games, Jaques have developed many other very popular outdoor games over the last 150 years, such as Badminton & Rounders.

Skittles have also become very popular with some of Jaques early skittles design now being played in leagues all around the country. Jaques Garden Skittles are also very popular. The Fireman, Sailor, Royal Guards and Policeman skittles are now very much a household item in many English homes and indeed homes all around the world.
