Our Story

Heritage Sport.
Modern Spirit.

Founded in 2024, Central Park Croquet Club was born from a simple desire: to reclaim the weekend afternoon. We believe in the art of slowing down, the joy of friendly competition, and the magic of Central Park in the summer.

We are not a stuffy country club. We are a social collective of creatives, professionals, and friends who believe that some of the best conversations happen with a mallet in hand.

See you on the meadow.
