Technical Information and Resources

Oxford Croquet is a web site that brings together many hundreds of articles on detailed research about or relevant to croquet. While some of the experimental procedures and calculations are highly technical, the “Discussions and Conclusions” sections are accessible to all. You can also ask Google Gemini (free) to summarize technical articles for you by pasting them in the URL.
