They cater to every level of player from beginning to professional, and provide hours of vacation fun and entertainment for couples, families, and corporate groups.

Both regulation championship croquet courts have laser flat surfaces similar to golf greens, providing a much different experience from "Backyard Croquet", which is the most widely known form of croquet.
