Playing Pétanque

Pétanque is a game for everyone, it is sometimes referred to as French Boules. Petanque can be a competitive sport for those who enjoy playing it more seriously, but can also be enjoyed socially with friends and family. Our members will be happy to welcome you and your family and friends to our club to get you started.

The club owns some spare sets of boules and these can be loaned out to newcomers, information is available at the club for you to purchase your own Boules and Club Sportswear. Free coaching can be given to all new members either singular or in groups.
