Jaques is synonymous with quality croquet sets. 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. It was especially
popular in India, reportedly played by The Viceroy himself
with a solid ivory mallet, probably made by Jaques as part
of their finest set. The first national croquet headquarters
was the Wimbledon All England Croquet Club (later to become
the Wimbledon All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club).
Here we present our range of Jaques croquet balls. Our range
is covers three quality levels. So, if you would like to
buy a complete set, or wish to replace a lost ball
in an existing set, we should be able to help you. The colours of primary and secondary ball sets are shown at the bottom of the page.

BALL COLOURS Primary colours are Blue, Red, Black and Yellow. If more
colours are required (eg if more people are playing, or
each player uses multiple balls) then secondary colours
may be added. These include Brown, Green, Pink and White. |
