Wickets and poles that would stand
up by themselves -say, with suction
cups, sticky bottoms (eeww), or
heavy, weighted, cloth bottoms.
Soft, rubbery balls (again, eeewww)
-
perhaps inflated.
Mallets.
Now one can play croquet indoors
and utilize all of the obstacles and
terrain
found in the indoor
landscape, such as furniture, stairs,
and doorways.

<aside> when I arrived at university, we had a meeting with the hall warden. He ended his briefing with these words. "I know that the 3-bar radiators look like a wicket, but I want to make it quite clear that it's not acceptable to play Corridor Cricket." Up until that point, it had never occured. Safe to say, a marvellous season of F-Block corridor cricket ensued. </aside> |
