The Croquet Association’s task force has reviewed the COVID-19 response for England published by HM Government on 22nd February and has kept in touch with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport and the Sport & Recreation Alliance. It appears that national governing bodies of sports are being allowed greater latitude to set guidelines appropriate for their individual sports, within the overall framework of the national restrictions.
In broad outline, our guidance is that, subject to the four tests mentioned in that document and confirmation of the actual dates:
Step 1a, before 29th March:
Step 1b, from 29th March:
Guidance for later steps will be added in due course. Changes which are expected to come into place at these times include:
Step 2, from no earlier than 12th April. As Step 1b, except that:
Step 3, from no earlier than 17th May:
More detailed guidance, for players, clubs and tournament organisers, will be issued in the coming days. A meeting specifically to discuss the effect on the fixtures calendar has been scheduled.
Please address any queries to the Hon. Secretary, Ian Vincent.

It is with great sadness we report the tragic death of David Lloyd on Sunday 14th February 2021, whilst undergoing surgery for a ruptured aneurysm.
Our deepest sympathy goes to his family and those close to him at this very sad time. David was passionate about playing croquet with a great determination to succeed. He was a valued team member in all forms of the game, representing the Crake Valley Club (and also previously Westmorland) at both local and national events.
David was also instrumental in pushing forward several projects to improve facilities at the Crake Valley Club. He will be sadly missed.
Simon Robins (Chairman Crake Valley CC)
