Download or read book Complete Croquet written by James Hawkins and published by Crowood. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its early days in Victorian England croquet was a game for the wealthy but competition from other sports - most notably tennis - the onset of two world wars, and a century of social change forced the game to adapt. Modern croquet is an intricate game of strategy, played socially within clubs and competitively at national and international level. The object of the game - to guide two balls round a circuit of loops - has changed little over the years but tactically, croquet has become much more complex, elaborate and fascinating. Complete Croquet is a comprehensive guide for the aspiring and improving croquet player. It deals with the basic skills, and how to avoid and eradicate common problems, as well as providing an in-depth coverage of modern tactics. The author focuses on the building blocks of break play, examining in detail how each element works before bringing it all together. There is advice on how to repair a bad situation when everything has gone wrong, how to exploit a good situation when everything is going well, and how to regain the initiative when the opponent is storming ahead. Whether your interest is in developing an understanding of top-class, championship-level tactics, in improving your play at handicap level, or even in just playing at home and wanting to get a better understanding of the game, Complete Croquet will prove to be invaluable. Superbly illustrated with 195 colour photographs and diagrams.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Croquet Guide and Official Rules Governing the Game: As Adopted by the National American Croquet Association On the opposite page will be found the plan of a ground as adopted by the National Association, the dimensions of which are as follows: Length, 72 ft.; width, 36 ft.; corner pieces 8 ft. long, inside measurements, with a line denoting the boundary of the field 30 in. from the inside of the border. The stakes or post to be 1 in. in diameter and 11⁄2 in. high, situated outside of the above mentioned line at the centre of the width of the field. The first wicket to be 7 ft. from the stake; the second, 7 ft. from the first, on a line extending through the middle of the field; the side arches to be 6 ft.3 in. from the border, on a line with the second arch from each stake; the cage or double wicket in the centre to be 18 in. long and 33⁄8 in. between the wires, and set at right angles with a line drawn from stake to stake; the other eight arches to be 31⁄2 in. between the wires. The border, b, b, b, is best when made of some hard wood that will not warp, not smaller than 4x6 in., laid flat to serve as a cushion for carom shots; this timber or border should be beveled 1⁄2 in., making it measure 6 in. wide on top, 51⁄2 in. wide on the bottom and 4 inches high, which will prevent balls from jumping up or off the ground when used as a cushion. The boundary line, i, i, i, is simply a light line drawn 30 in. from or inside the border to indicate the boundary of the field (See Rule 38). This line can be easily made with a marker, having a small projecting nail point, drawn around the ground and held against the border, securing uniform distance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1874 edition. Excerpt: ... ever, when it is wished to draw the adversary away from playing the proper game, it is admissible to give a double shot as a "tice," so as to tempt him to shoot where his missing would give you the dead ball. Principle 9.-- When you are unlikely to make or continue a break with your own ball, play to lay the break for your partner. . When one or two doubtful and risky strokes would result, if successful, in a long break, it is worth while trying for it: but when, from the position of the balls, it is evident that no good break would ensue, even if those strokes were to succeed, the best play is to lay as good a break as possible for your partner; for keeping the break on your side is worth more than the chance of a point or two. Your game is to leave your partner a ball to play on, and another at his hoop, or a rush to his hoop, and a ball at his next hoop but one; or lay him a break in some other equally effective way. It is of great importance to know when to continue your own break, and when to leave off and play your partner's game. INSTRUCTIONS TO THE PLAYER WHO IS "IN," AND HAS THE BREAK. 1. Before you make your next point in your break, always provide, if possible, for your next point but one, either by sending a ball forward to help you there, or by arranging a rush to it from the point you are about to make. 2. Never leave a ball behind in the break, if it can be avoided, except for special reasons (see page 68). 3. Do not let the balls you are playing on in your break get too close together, or you will not have sufficient room to make the stop or splitting strokes you may require (see pages 69 and 74). 4. Always prefer a rush to your hoop, to a long rolling stroke to it. It is often worth while going some distance out of the...
