Boules!

  • Monday, 01 February 2010 15:07

A rectangular area has been marked out, again, in the gravelled area adjacent to the lake outside Blocks P1, 2 & 3 which has been designated for playing the Boules or Pétanque, a game popular in France, similar to lawn bowls.

Sets of boules are also available from the management offices on request and again we would ask you to fill out a registration form the first time you borrow the set.

For those who are not familiar with the rules a brief outline of a version of such rules has been pinned up close to the playing area. Alternatively, check out the many websites which outline the rules for boules including the following http://www.britishpetanque.org/how%20to%20play.htm

However, please feel free to play according to your own rules!
