Bocce

Owen Sound Bocce Badgers

Bocce is an Italian game. Bocce as a Special Olympics sport provides people with special needs the opportunity to have social contact, develop physically and gain self-confidence. Next to soccer and golf, bocce is the third most participated sport in the world. The game’s object is to roll your bocce balls and those of your team members as close to the target ball (the pallino or jack) as possible. Your opponents will do the same, and whichever team’s balls end up closest to the pallino scores points.
