Croquet mallets and balls in England
The short answer: Invictus builds mallets to order for English croquet players and sends Invictus X balls to English clubs, with the delivered price confirmed before you pay and the mallet prices below in pounds.
Croquet across England
England has the largest and oldest network of croquet clubs anywhere, organised by Croquet England through its regional federations, with a season that generally opens in late March and closes in September or October. The climate is mild and often damp, which means heavy, slow turf in spring and autumn and quicker courts in a dry August. Our town pages describe each club, its lawns and the mallet that suits them.

Our mallets and balls
The Invictus Rise (£525) has an aluminium head of around 3 lb that pushes through wet grass, and its slightly larger sweet spot makes it the mallet we recommend to most players. The RF Pro (£975) is the flagship designed with World Champion Robert Fletcher: a 3D printed aluminium head with brass weights and composite faces, about 2 lb 12 oz, lighter and very precise. Both come in an 11 or 12 inch head and are cut to your handle length. Invictus X balls, championship approved by the World Croquet Federation, are £479 a set.
