A standard croquet set typically includes six wickets. These are arranged in a specific layout on the playing field, allowing players to hit their balls through the wickets in a designated order. Some sets may also include additional wickets for variations of the game or for larger playing areas.
Hedgehogs were used as croquet balls in "Alice in Wonderland." The Queen of Hearts used flamingos as mallets to hit the hedgehogs through the croquet wickets.
In the sport of cricket the word wicket has several distinct meanings:1. a set of stumps and bails; 2. the pitch; or 3. the dismissal of a batsman.
There are a total of nine hoops in the game. There is a pin at either end of the field with two hoops each. There are two hoops on either side of the field, and one in the middle. Play starts from either end with the player going through the two hoops at the pin. Then play goes to the first hoop on the right, then the middle, the next hoop on the right, then through both hoops at the other end and the ball then must touch the pole. Play is then repeated going in the opposite direction. The first player to go through all the hoops and touch the pin wins the game.
The object of croquet is to be the first player to complete the course by hitting their ball through all the designated wickets in the correct sequence and finally striking the finishing stake. Players can also strategically block or displace their opponent's balls to gain an advantage.
