Ipswich and District Croquet Club
Croquet. A fun community sport for the whole family.
Ipswich and District Croquet Club (ICC) invites all, both new to the sport and experienced players, to play at its purpose built croquet facility.
Croquet is a sport of accuracy
and tactics rather than strength or physical agility and is therefore
enjoyed by everyone regardless of
age, gender or background. It can
be played competitively or socially
… and what’s more it’s good for
you.
ICC is open to its members and
their guests from dawn until dusk every day of the year.
Croquet is on the up.
There are now croquet clubs all over the world, and more than 200 in the UK with nearly 10,000 registered players and growing.
Benefits of playing
Playing croquet is a great way to meet people, keep active and have fun. Since the pandemic it has become recognised as an excellent means of achieving physical, mental and social wellbeing.
Most affordable
At Ipswich a full membership can cost as little as 36 pence per day – less than the cost of a cup of tea - and the benefits are numerous.
A proud history and a bright new future.
ICC was founded in 1908 when in England croquet was a sport second only in popularity to cricket.
During recent times the club is proud to have had regional, national and international champions among its members.
The ICC’s purpose is to encourage community participation in healthy recreation by fostering and promoting the sport of croquet to everyone, and to enjoy associated social activities.
ICC has recently moved to a purpose built croquet facility on Bucklesham Road, Ipswich, Suffolk.
All visitors are very welcome.
