Basic Rules of Bocce
Bocce
is played with 8 large bowling balls called
Bocce balls and one smaller target ball
or pallino. Bocce is played between two
players or two teams of up to four players
on a team. The object of the game is
to roll the bocce balls closer to the
pallino than the opponent. The placement
of the pallino is determined at the beginning
of each frame by one team throwing it between
the center line of the court and the far
boundary line. Each team then takes alternating
turns to throw their balls toward the pallino
in hopes of either: placing their
ball closest, moving the pallino closer
to their ball, or moving the opponent's
ball away from the pallino.
