The Challenge
|
Similar to English lawn bowls and French petanque, bocce ball is a sport that can be played both indoor and out, by everyone.
Bocce is played at sports clubs, in schools, for rehabilitation in physiotherapy, for the fun of it - or as a serious elite sport. The popularity of bocce has increased the demand for courts especially for the more serious competitors that require approved sized courts and equipment. Traditionally these courts are made of wood and require a dedicated area on which to play. For national competitions, where multiple bocce courts are required, moving, assembling and transporting the courts requires trailers, containers, and significant man power. |
