Boccia

 

What is it?Boccia

Boccia is similar to 'French boules' and was originally created for those with cerebral palsy; it proved to be so popular that it’s now played by all abilities.

 

A team is made up from 3 players and 2 reserves. Players must be seated and aim to roll, throw or flick their coloured boccia balls as close as possible to the white jack.

 

League

The Adult Boccia League and the Schools Junior Boccia League have run since 2003.
