Pétanque is the summer activity of reference. The rules of pétanque are simple which makes this game accessible to everyone.

Can be played on multiple surfaces, petanque allows you to have a good time with family or friends.

The object of the game is to throw the ball closest to the "goal" more commonly known as the jack.


The team whose ball is closest to the kid wins the point. The other team must then play their balls to regain the advantage. When a team has no more balls in hand, the other team must play all of its own.

Once all the balls have been thrown, the points must be counted. The winning team scores a point for each ball better placed (closer to the jack) than the best ball of the opposing team.
