Growing Croquet Facilities Infrastructure

Croquet Victoria (CV) initiated a strategic review of existing State-wide facility provision in order to provide a framework to guide facility improvement priorities and to support opportunities to increase participation in the sport. Research, consultation and feedback confirmed that priorities for improvement included renewal of existing built facilities, renewal of playing courts and lighting installation. However the demand assessment also identified opportunities for additional court provision to service current and future participation demands. Importantly, it is also noted that enhanced flexibility in programming and scheduling of existing participation may also be required by individual clubs in order to maximise the use of existing facilities. The associated Background Report of information and data is also included in this entry.
