I am an international croquet player, representing Scotland in various tournaments, as well as playing under my own name and for my club domestically. I am part of Croquet England’s International Performance Development Squad. I have played competitively since 2018, although I first came across the sport as a student in 2010, when my team finished runners-up in a university-wide competition.


As things stand, I have been selected for the 2024 Golf Croquet World Championships at Chesapeake Bay Croquet Club, Virginia. Croquet is an entirely amateur sport, with only a little support that does not cover the cost of travelling, especially for a smaller nation like Scotland. I am open to sponsorship offers, to advertise your brand on my website or wear your logo on my kit when playing, or something else, details to be decided when you get in touch. Every little helps to support a minority sport.

I am on the committee of my club, Enfield Croquet Club, who play in Bush Hill Park Recreation Ground. We always welcome enquiries about membership. I am also a deputy to the Development Officer in the East Anglia Croquet Federation and am on the EACF committee.
