Croquet mallets and balls in Camerton and Peasedown St John
The short answer: players at Camerton and Peasedown St John can have an Invictus mallet made to their own handle length and sent to them in Somerset, and the club can buy approved balls a set at need. Prices are in pounds sterling; most members should start with the Invictus Rise.
Croquet in Camerton and Peasedown St John
Camerton & Peasedown Croquet Club was formed in 2012 and is based in Peasedown St John, near Bath. It has four full-size lawns, a clubhouse completed in 2023 and wide Somerset views. The club belongs to the South West Croquet Federation and Croquet England, and members play both Association and Golf Croquet.
On the first Sunday of each month, from 2 to 4pm, the club invites the "croquet curious" for a free game and a cup of tea; bring flat-soled shoes. Members get equipment and coaching free. In September 2026 the club's A team won the South West Federation Handicap League final at Budleigh Salterton, 15 games to 5; in June sixteen players, some from Oxford, came for its annual C-level tournament.
What Peasedown's lawns and weather mean for your mallet
Play continues all year; the main season runs April to September. Each autumn members turn all four lawns through 90 degrees and shrink them to about 70% of summer size, resetting them in spring. Over the dry summer of 2026 the club reported its watered lawns stayed green and playable while many grounds it visited turned brown. Expect firm, quick grass in a dry spell and small, soft winter courts that reward touch.
Which Invictus mallet suits Camerton and Peasedown players
Invictus Rise, £525. Our most popular mallet. Its aluminium head weighs close to 3 lb and has a slightly wider sweet spot, forgiving on a heavy winter lawn; we generally fit the 11 inch head.
RF Pro, £975. World Champion Robert Fletcher helped develop our flagship. Inside its 3D printed aluminium body sit brass weights, with composite on each face; the finished mallet is nearer 2 lb 12 oz, lighter and very exact on quick summer grass.
We build each one to the handle length you give us, choosing between 11 and 12 inch heads. Graphite Black costs nothing extra, while Snow White, NRA Blue, Rose Gold or Deep Purple adds £89. You cannot pick the weight. See the comparison and fitting guide.
Balls for Camerton and Peasedown clubs

Delivery to Peasedown St John
Because the mallet is only made once you order, Somerset delivery is usually 4 to 8 weeks from order, as an estimate.
Questions Peasedown players ask
Should I buy before trying the game? No. Come to a first-Sunday session and use club mallets first.
Will one mallet do for winter and summer lawns? Yes. Change your swing, not your mallet.
