Halls Head Croquet Club is a sports club located in Mandurah, Western Australia. The club is dedicated to promoting and playing the game of croquet in its various forms, including Association Croquet and Golf Croquet.
Association Croquet is the full international version of the sport, played by two players each with two balls. The objective is to score 12 hoop-points and a peg-point with each ball before the opponent does the same. Skilled players can strategically outmanoeuvre their opponents and score multiple hoop points in a single turn. On the other hand, Golf Croquet is a simpler version with one stroke per turn and a focus on accuracy and tactics.
Players move through a course, contesting each hoop in turn.
