Clubs – Boccia

Boccia club is run by Mrs Ward and Miss Kent

It is a tactical target sport. It is similar to bowling where you play in two teams – red and blue, the winning team has to get the most balls closest to the ‘jack’. It was developed to include everyone and so is played sat in chairs. Did you know, it is even a Paralympic sport!

Originally, developed in Ancient Greece Boccia develops children’s accuracy, aim and communication skills. Children learn lots of different skills and strategies throughout the session and then often finish with a practice match. They also attend friendlies, matches and tournaments throughout the year. A couple of years ago we won the cup!
