Bocce is a ball game originating from Italy. Bocce is a type a rolling game that uses eight large balls and a smaller ball target. The goal of the game is for the ball to touch the pallino (piglet) and score a point. The traditional bocce court was made of stone, wood or sand. However, it is not uncommon to play bocce on grass or other flat surfaces.
Every player should be familiar with the rules and techniques of bocce before playing. This will help you know when to go first and which order to throw. It's also important to know the types and uses of the balls. These balls can be made from wood, plastic, or baked clay. They are available in various colors and patterns.
The first player tosses the bocce. Two points are earned when the bocce touches the jack. The next player tosses a bocce, too. The game is re-started at this point and the players move to the next end of the bocce courts to start a new round.
A player may choose to throw a bocce unarmed so that they have full control of the ball. This is particularly useful when playing ball games, because it gives the player complete control over the ball.
After the initial tossing, the team must move bocce balls as close to the pallino possible. Their points will vary depending on how far the ball is moved. A very close throw may score just one point. Contrarily, a very far throw can often score as many as two points.
Each team is allowed to have four balls. However, no player can deliver more than the allocated number of balls. The number of points scored and the mood of players will determine how long the bocce game lasts. Most bocce game are played to 12 point, but teams can play to 15, or even 21 points.
Each team will alternate throwing one jack at each frame. Each team's team will have a different jack. Flipping coins is one method to determine which order the jack throws are made. Another option is for each player to pound a regulator pin in the middle of the bocce court.
A bocce court is typically rectangular in shape and measures 13 feet by 91ft. It should have at least two foul lines. The foul line must be kept in place so that players can't step on it during throwing. You can use chalk and string to mark the bocce court. Also, be sure to set the bocce ball out at least 15 feet from the foul line.
If you want to play bocce games, you need to split your group into two or more teams. Each team can have two or three players, depending on their size. A level playing field is essential, but it's not necessary to have a raised boundary.
