Haslemere u3a has joined forces with Guildford and Godalming Croquet Club who started running weekly dedicated sessions for members of local U3a groups in 2025.

The group will happen every Thursday morning 10.30 - 12-30 throughout the summer season. There will be two free taster sessions on the 30th April and 7th May.

After that the cost will be £100 for the full season to end September, (22 sessions) payable in advance to the Croquet Club as a lump sum or in £20 monthly instalments paid by standing order.

The play is at Guildford and Godalming Croquet club (GGCC) at Broadwater Park in Godalming. A map is available on their website.

The Club provides all the equipment including mallets and the group will be supported by GGCC coaches and other members of the Croquet Club. There is a positive social feeling to the group with breaks for tea and biscuits. The last session in September will be a “friendly” competition.

Said Ginny of Farnham U3A  “ I have enjoyed the sessions immensely ; everyone at the Club is so friendly and has encouraged and supported us newcomers.”

Helen from Guildford U3A said “ The U3A croquet sessions have been great. Each week I learn a little more and laugh a lot!” 

Haslemere u3a members wanting to book a place for the taster sessions need to complete the bookings form on the GGCC u3a sessions webpage.
