![]() ![]() ![]() Sue had never played the sport before joining the club and admitted she 'wasn't convinced' before picking up her mallet for the first time. ![]() Not my words - but the words of Plymouth Croquet Club chair, Sue Marples. The game dates back to 1856 and it generally comes with the stereotype that it's for 'posh ladies' and anyone who plays it is seen as 'elitist'. Now, if you're looking for something gentle and easygoing I'd suggest something like football but if you're after a thrill and want to show your ruthless side there's only one sport for you - croquet! So it's the perfect time to play a bit of sport and make the most of this glorious weather. It can only mean one thing, summer is fast approaching. The sun is shining, the sunscreen is already running out and most importantly the tea is flowing. ![]()
