Welcome to the 2012 season at Tyneside Croquet Club.

The Council have turned the water off and drained the system at our Nuns Moor site. Members should take their own water for refreshments etc and if possible, take some water to flush the toilets after use.

John Moore has had a liver transplant after a long wait and is now home and on the way to recovery. We all wish him well.

We now are trying out an online lawns booking service for Nuns Moor over the winter sessions. This will be amended as found necessary and members can see the booking sheet by clicking on the link at the very bottom of this page.

Currently, club sessions for GC is played Thursday and Saturday afternoons and AC is on Tuesday afternoon. Belsay Hall CC are using the lawns on Monday afternoons. All sessions are from 12 noon until dusk.

Tyneside Croquet Club was established in 1983 and is at home in Exhibition Park and also Nuns Moor Park, Newcastle upon Tyne. (See Photo Gallery for directions to Exhibition Park.)

Newcastle is easily reached by good road, rail and air links from any part of the country and the club is situated within Exhibition Park on the northwest edge of the city centre.

With a membership of over 30, two courts (ex bowling greens) in Exhibition Park and 1 court (ex bowling green) at Nuns Moor Park, substantial pavilions, situated in major city parks, we are in an enviable stuation for a croquet club.

The Croquet Association (CA) is croquet's governing body of which we are a member club and we are also affiliated to its regional federation Croquet North (CN).

We play Association and Golf Croquet and have fixed allocated club days and evening sessions, hold coaching sessions and club championships.

We would consider any corporate visit to the club, when we could provide supervised games and refreshments -
