Petanque is a French (Provencal) outdoor game played by two opposing teams. The goal is to throw boules (hollow steel balls, the size of an orange) as close as possible to a small wooden sphere called a cochonnet (literally 'piglet'), while standing inside a circle with both feet on the ground. The game is normally played on hard dirt or gravel. Boules are approx. £20 for 6.

We meet on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month between 10am and 12 noon at Life Community Church.

Fees are £1.50 per session which includes a mug of tea or coffee. We play in all weathers, rain or shine.
