Come and play this very accessible sport and have fun with a great group of people!
Boccia is a truly inclusive sport. Played seated, it has been a Paralympic sport since 1984. The game is usually played in two teams, who compete to try to send/throw/kick their balls closer to the target (the jack), than their opponents. It is relatively easy to play, but devilishly tricky to play well!
These sessions usually consist of a variety of fun warm up activities and skills practices, followed by plenty of games. It is led by one of our experienced Boccia Leaders. Occasionally we play a friendly tournament amongst the group.
No previous experience is required. This session is ideal for anyone with limited physical mobility and/or stability.
