Intermediate Croquet Hoops Heavy duty hoops (0+ Years)

This is a full set of 6 Intermediate hoops, sized at 35cm high and 12cm wide, which is the standard step between starter and full-size club hoops. The set gives you 4 white hoops plus 1 red topped and 1 blue topped hoop, so you can mark the first and last hoop on the course without extra paint or tape. If your existing hoops are rusted or bent, this set is designed to replace them directly.

These Intermediate hoops have a widest diameter of 7.4mm at the crown, which is the thickness of the metal the ball has to pass through. Each hoop stands 35cm high and 12cm wide, sized for intermediate level play rather than full club regulation hoops. The consistent 7.4mm profile across all 6 hoops means the set plays evenly, with no single hoop tighter or looser than another.

Yes, all 6 hoops are finished with heavy duty baked paint rather than a standard sprayed or dipped coating. Baked paint bonds to the metal under heat, which is why the set is aimed at withstanding repeated outdoor use rather than fading or chipping after a season. The colour coding, red and blue tops on 2 of the hoops, is part of that same baked finish, so it will not wear off before the white paint does.

The set includes 4 white hoops and 1 red topped and 1 blue topped hoop, which is the standard way of marking the starting and finishing hoops on a course. Each hoop measures 35cm high and 12cm wide, so they push into the lawn to that height once set. Beyond placing the coloured hoops at the start and end points, the layout of the other 4 white hoops depends on the course pattern you are playing.

They are described as heavy duty, with a baked paint finish rather than a basic painted coat, which is the main thing protecting the metal from rust and chipping over repeated outdoor use. This set is specifically sold as a replacement for hoops that have gone rusty or bent with age. There is no listed maintenance beyond that, so care is mainly a matter of the baked finish resisting weather rather than needing repainting.

You get 6 hoops in total: 4 plain white hoops, 1 with a red top, and 1 with a blue top. Each hoop has a maximum height of 35cm, a width of 12cm, and a widest diameter of 7.4mm. That is the full contents, there is no mallet, ball, or peg included, this listing is hoops only, sized for intermediate rather than full club play.

These are labelled Intermediate hoops rather than full club regulation size, standing 35cm high and 12cm wide. They are suited to adults playing family or garden level croquet rather than a full regulation lawn setup. If you already own a Jaques full-size hoop set and just need to compare heights, check your existing hoops against this 35cm figure before buying, since mixing intermediate and full-size hoops on the same course will look and play unevenly.

Yes, this set is aimed squarely at replacing hoops that have rusted or bent with age, so it suits someone who already plays and just needs fresh equipment. The set gives 6 hoops, 4 white and 2 colour topped, in a heavy duty baked paint finish, meant to hold up to years of outdoor use rather than one season. Because it is hoops only, it works best as a top-up gift for a household that already owns mallets and balls.
