Croquet
Belleair Country Club is excited to announce the recent opening of two
new, state-of-the-art, United States Croquet Association regulation-sized
croquet courts. These new laser-leveled courts have been constructed using USGA
modified green construction to ensure proper drainage and occupy a 230’ x 95’
footprint. Adjacent to the courts is a beautiful terrace with restrooms, seating
and tables to allow spectators and players to relax and enjoy the croquet
action in the comfort of shade. The courts are fully lighted for nighttime
play.
Croquet is a popular sport that can be enjoyed by all ages. Golf Croquet,
as well as American Six Wicket, and Association games are all played regularly
by Belleair Croquet Club members and their families. Instruction and introductory
clinics for beginners and intermediate players is available and everyone is
encouraged to play! All equipment necessary to play a variety of croquet games,
including mallets, is available in a storage area adjacent to the croquet
terrace.
Traditional white clothing is required to be worn by all players, as well
as flat shoes to protect the playing surface.
