CROQUET GAME RULES
7.
You may not roquet an opponent's ball a second time until you ball has:
a) hit another ball, b) passed through a wicket, or c) hit a stake.
8.
The second bonus stroke after a roquet is an ordinary stroke played from where the striker
ball comes to rest.
9.
If a roqueting ball touches one or more balls, it may croquet as many balls as it strikes,
but this allows for only 1 additional stroke. If one of the several balls hit is croqueted, all of
the balls must be croqueted.
10.
The team first to hit the final stake with all balls wins the game.
1. Roquet
- To have a ball touch another ball directly or indirectly by a mallet stroke. 2 additional
bonus strokes are awarded by roqueting.
2. Croquet
- To strike one's own ball when in contact with a roqueted ball. The player is allowed
to put his foot on his own ball, driving it against the other and send it in any direction
with the mallet.
3. Roquet Croquet
- Similar to Croquet, but the player may send both balls in any direction
by striking his ball.
4. Ricochet
- Roqueting two or more balls by one strike of the mallet.
5. Rover
- When a ball has been through all wickets before striking the starting/finishing stake,
the player can make his ball a rover to aid his team or hinder the opponent team. The rover
ball may roquet any ball in play, once per turn, unless it passes through a wicket.
The rover ball cannot roquet a ball twice in a row.
