bisques to create, mend and maintain a break.
Session 2 (15 mins): Association Croquet Practice Explain by coach referring to competition : least bisques in 7 point turn wins.
Session 3 (90 mins): Association Croquet Competition Explain need for all to use half lawn, the other ball is already on peg (arrange clips
appropriately), secondary colours start at hoop 3, and the coaches are available to
answer questions but will not offer advice.

bisques they use in total.
Non playing pupils help by keeping bisque count.
One coach should be available for each game.
