Description
The student life team will be heading outdoors for some fun and fresh air. Join us and enjoy an afternoon of sport and laughter. We will bring the equipment, and rugs so drop by and play or just to come and watch.
We will bring the badminton and rounders equipment, plus Petanque.
Petanque is played with hollow steel balls known as boules, and a small wooden target or jack. The game is usually played on a gravel-topped terrain at least 12m long, but this need not to be a purpose-built area and petanque can be played informally on many other types of surface, such as a sandy beach. Frenchay campus has it's own petanque pitch.
