        Equipment

‘Whites’ are only worn for tournaments, matches and Club sessions. Normal leisurewear is worn at all other times. Flat –soled footwear is essential. Hoops, pegs and balls are provided for each lawn. The Club provides mallets free for the use of beginners, and coaches will give advice on the size and weight of mallet you need prior to buying. Second –hand mallets are available for sale from time to time.

 

Club sessions [ no handicap restrictions – in season ]

There are Club sessions held regularly throughout the season: just turn up and a game with another member will be arranged for you.

 

Coaching

Beginners are encouraged. Coaching is available for beginners and as a ‘taster package ‘. Extra sessions are available throughout the year and on request.
