Collingham Croquet Club
In 1988 John ‘Mitch’ Mitchell decided that Collingham had practically every club available but it did not have a Croquet Club. He set about remedying this situation by contacting the nearest Croquet Club to organize a demonstration and ‘have a go day’ on the village cricket field. From this a small committee was formed to find a suitable place to play. The owners of ‘Copper Beeches’ were approached and agreed to let the club use the lawns. With a lot of hard work by the members, Collingham Croquet Club was born. We continue to play at the ‘Copper Beeches’, High Street, Collingham.
Our annual and joining fees are reasonable for both playing and social members. Club days are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday but members can play at any time.
During the closed season we meet for Coffee Mornings, Skittles and, of course, our Annual Dinner.
We attribute our success as a club, to the fact that we don’t play in leagues, we play mainly for our own enjoyment and for companionship.
We have, approximately 35 members and are always happy to welcome newcomers.
