Description
We will bring the equipment and rugs, so drop by and play or just come and watch.
We will bring badminton and rounders equipment, plus pétanque.
Pétanque
Pétanque 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 12 meters long, but this need not be a purpose-built area - pétanque can be played informally on many other types of surface, such as a sandy beach. Frenchay Campus has its own pétanque pitch.
