AIDS FOR CROQUET: PRACTICE TRAINING AIDS AND 'ON MALLET' PLAYING AIDS

摘要

The technology provides practice aids for developing croquet skills and on-mallet playing aids for improving croquet play. The practice aids are used while practicing croquet and offer benefits such as immediate feedback and practice shot repeatability. The practice aids may include a swing trainer, a single ball shot trainer, a croquet shot maker, a cannon shot maker, a mallet alignment tool, a take-off trainer, a hoop maker, and a wiring trainer. The on-mallet playing aids are used while practicing and during croquet games since the rules of croquet allow a player to mark a mallet. The on-mallet playing aids offer benefits such as improved in-game shot setup and improved shot precision. The on-mallet playing aids may include a single ball shot playing facilitator, a take-off playing facilitator, and a croquet-shot playing facilitator. The practice aids and the on-mallet playing aids may offer different ways of achieving a same result.
