The Roade Story

From overgrown field to croquet club

Our club moved to its present beautiful home in Roade in 2023. The clubhouse and Lawn 4 were added in 2024. We are immensely proud of this achievement and of the team of committed members who brought it to reality through hard work and dedication. As a tribute to them, here we present some photos of the progress of the project, which show how much work went into preparing the ground and building the clubhouse.
