About the USCA

Organized in 1977 by Jack Osborn, the USCA established croquet as a serious sport in America and remains the primary organizing force behind its growth and development. The USCA has nearly 300 member clubs and 3,000 members, sanctioning hundreds of local, regional, national and international tournaments each year. Much of the recent growth has been at golf clubs and resorts and in municipal parks where croquet has added to a mix of sports and leisure activities.

The USCA has a full-time office staff which keeps regular weekday hours. We welcome calls or e-mails requesting information on all aspects of croquet, including information on starting a club and on local contacts to instruct and advise you. The staff will also gladly offer advice, print resources, and consulting on lawn construction and maintenance.

Collegiate Division

The Collegiate Division has established ongoing programs in a dozen colleges and universities. Local advisors and coaches are provided for college and university groups committed to getting croquet organized on campus.

Croquet Foundation

Organized in association with and in support of the USCA, the nonprofit Croquet Foundation of America finances many of the educational books and videos available for purchase from the Pro Shop.
