The club is always keen to welcome new potential members.
​
You can simply turn up on any playing day and for a modest fee (£3.00) you can play all day. Guests can make three visits after which they must join the club. Membership in 2025 is £78.00.
​
We play daily during the season at times determined by when the school is not using the field.
​
We have a lawn booking system which means that you will get to play with a good variety of members of varying standards, any of whom will be very happy to introduce you to the game and guide you through it.
​
The club owns a number of mallets so you do not need to have one of your own. They are free to use.
 
We hope you will enjoy your introduction to croquet and look forward to seeing you there.
​
If you decide you would like to join, this can be done online (see below) or by emailing the Membership Secretary Simon Parvin.

Membership
To join the club for the first time you will need to complete a Membership Application Form which can be viewed here as a pdf or downloaded here as a Word document.

Returning Members 
If you were a member in 2024, you do not need to complete the form. Instead, please be sure to email Simon Parvin so he knows you have rejoined, detailing any changes to your address and phone numbers and indicating how you plan to pay. Payment is ideally by BACS to Swanage Croquet Club, sort code 30-98-97, account number 78441162, being sure to add your name as reference, or failing that by cheque or cash delivered to 10 Sunridge Close, BH19 2BW.

If you would like to make a contribution to a fund for equipment acquisition and maintenance, this would be very much appreciated, and any donations can be made (anonymously if you wish) to our bank account. If you choose to make a donation, please mark it with the reference “Equipment” (adding, or not, your surname).
​
It is normally possible to join straight away but there is sometimes a Waiting List.
​
We will contact you once your membership application has been processed.
