Marrickville Croquet Club - Celebrating 100 Years!

Published Fri 08 May 2026

As we celebrated World Croquet Day on Saturday 2nd May, so too did the Marrickville Croquet Club who celebrated a special milestone on Saturday, when the club formally celebrated 100 years of hooping in Marrickville!

A highlight was the launch of the club history by local member #Jo Haylen. Thank you to Inner West Council for the Local History Grant which has supported the production of the publication.

The Club appreciated the warm words of both local member, Jo Haylen, and Inner West Councillor Matt Howard at the Centenary celebration on Saturday. We were also thrilled to welcome the granddaughter of a founding member fly in from Melbourne to help celebrate the day.
