Regional golf croquet pennants are played between February and June each year and the region extends from South West Rocks in the south to Coutts Crossing in the north. In golf croquet, the first team to hit a ball through a hoop wins that hoop. Each game is thirteen points, so the first team to win seven hoops wins the game.
