| Splendid design brought courtesy of Jaques of London - the oldest sports & games manufacturer in the world. |
| John Jaques II won a place in sporting history - and a Gold Medal - for introducing croquet into England at the Great Exhibition in 1851. His display there attracted such wide attention that the game speedily became the vogue, not only here but in Europe and throughout the British Empire. | | Several firms began making croquet equipment, but only John Jaques has survived from that period and continues to lead the market, offering superior equipment for all levels of play. | | The Roehampton is one of the jaques Tournament sets. They all include heavyweight hoops which are ideal for the execution of successful 'wire' shots. They also contain regulation weight balls and a ball carrying bag, and are therefore perfect for the real croquet enthusiast who likes to compete in this delightful sport. | | Contents: | | 4 Ascot Brass Ring Mallets. | XL Competition Balls with Carrying Bag. | Hampton Heavyweight hoops. | Flags. | Winning Post. | Yard Line Pegs. | Clips. | Ball Markers. | Smasher. | Rules. | It comes complete in a green grain polished box. |
