Croquet mallets and balls in Tasmania
The short answer: Invictus ships mallets and Invictus X balls across Bass Strait to every croquet club and player in Tasmania.
Croquet across Tasmania
Tasmania has eleven croquet clubs and more than 1,000 members, a remarkable number for a state its size, and Launceston's eight-lawn centre has hosted a World Croquet Federation world teams championship. The island's cool, damp climate keeps lawns on the slow side for much of the year, which shapes the mallet advice on each regional page.

Our mallets and balls
On slow southern lawns the Invictus Rise (A$990), head weight about 3 lb, is where most Tasmanian players should look first. The RF Pro (A$1,980), built with input from World Champion Robert Fletcher, is the lighter, very precise alternative, about 2 lb 12 oz. Every handle is cut to the player's length. Invictus X balls hold World Croquet Federation championship approval and cost A$990 the set.
