The Federation Sport Bocce of Western Australia is a not for profit organisation
The Principles of BOCCE
Bocce (bot – chee) is played between two players in the singles game, (or the exciting throwing games developed in the 1980s), or between teams of up to four people. The player aims to place the boccia (ball/bowl) as near as possible to the jack (target) in turn the opponent attempts to place their boccia nearer the jack, which may include displacing the opposition’s boccia. The boccia can be bowled along the ground or thrown through the air to displace the other boccia.
