The Uber Games Championship Croquet Set is a good quality croquet set for those wanting features normally found on more expensive sets, such as square mallet heads. It is a beautifully-crafted, durable set constructed using high quality materials. Set includes full size square head Rosewood mallets with brass rings and leather-bound handles, regulation size and weight balls, exceptionally solid club style steel hoops with stability carrot, rubber head hoop mallet to protect hoops, corner flags, yard markers, croquet clips and a hardwood centre peg. The Set can be purchased alone, or with various storage options (bags, wooden box etc). What we particularly like about this set is the the level of quality achieved at this price level. - High-Quality Croquet Set
- Brass rings on mallet heads help
protect against chipping
- Full-Size Set
- Regulation Size & Weight balls
- Contains ALL YOU NEED
- Guaranteed to please!
For many years there were two types of croquet set - good quality sets at a very
high price, and poor quality sets at a lower price. Thankfully, this situation
is changing as some really quite impressive sets at very good prices are becoming
increasingly available, broadening the appeal of croquet. The Uber Games Championship
set is a very good example of this. What this set does so well, is to put the
quality where you need it most - in particular mallets and balls! Get these two
right, and you'll have a great time playing croquet. The mallets supplied with
the Championship set are remarkably good for the price - they have solid octagonal-section
handles, profiled so that they flex in just the way you would want them to, and
(amazingly for the price), square rosewood mallet heads with brass rings. This
sort of mallet head is usually found on far more expensive sets and really makes
this set. The brass rings protect the mallet, reducing substantially the risk
of the wood chipping. What we also like about the mallets is that the set (uniquely
in our experience) contains 2 mallet lengths (38-inches and 34-inches). This enables
players to select a mallet that best suits them. The balls are also very good
- made from modern composite materials, they are long-lasting and regulation size
and weight. The hoops are not the most critical aspect of a croquet set, however
these again are far better than just a of metal rod bent into a u-shape. All in
all, our Championship Croquet Set really is a very good buy.
Storage Options
We offer a number of storage options to go with this set. You can puchase just
the set if you wish, or you can add to your order a wooden box, trolley, or bag
- more details about these options are given below.
Accessories
We offer a number of accessories to go with this set. The secondary colours are
worth having if more than 4 people will be playing at the same time, or when playing
with 2 balls. We also offer extra mallets. The Junior & Intermediate mallets are
great for encouraging the children to take up this great game. - 4 Solid Square head Rosewood mallets with brass rings and octagonal English

| Set of 4 Secondary Colour Regulation Size & Weight Croquet Balls - Uber Our Uber 16oz balls are full-weight and full-size (9.2cm). These modern, long
lasting composite balls are durable and provide excellent play. These are the
balls that Uber supply with their top-end croquet sets. Along with mallets, croquet balls are the most important part of a croquet set. Get it right, and you will be able to really feel the shot, and appreciate fully the right "knock" as one ball hits another. The important thing to look for in a croquet ball is that it is of regulation size and weight (a regulation croquet ball must be 3 5/8" diameter, and weigh 16 ounces), as a ball that is too light or too small will not behave in the way it should do. Finding regulation size & weight balls is actually not as easy as you might think, and if you do find them, they are usually quite highly priced - until now that is. Our replacement balls are made from a tough composite material and will provide years of good service. We offer so-called primary colours (Red, Blue, Black & yellow), as well as the secondary colours (Pink, Brown, White & Green). We sell individual balls, or as sets of primary or secondary colours. enlarge | | Wooden Croquet Box Strong wooden croquet box, the traditional way to store your croquet set. Made from solid pine.

enlarge | | Intermediate Croquet Mallet Most family croquet sets are supplied with full-sized croquet mallets, which are perfect for adults and teenagers. However, often there will be younger children who will also want to play along too, and they will find it much easier to play with a croquet mallet more suited to their size. Our intermediate mallets are perfect for children up to early teens. Lightweight, yet strong, they are perfect for encouraging children to take up the family croquet tradition from a young age. enlarge | | Junior Croquet Mallets & Balls - Four Colour Set with Canvas Bag Many good family croquet sets are supplied with full-sized croquet mallets and balls, which are perfect for adults and teenagers.
