BOULE EQUIPMENT
Boule is also sometimes known as 'petanque' and is a game that originated in Southern France in the province of Provence around 1907. We have a wide selection of boule equipment to suit all ages. The beauty of this game is that it can be played almost anywhere, but more commonly it is played on a hard dirt ground and sometime gravel, but saying that it can also be played on sand and is a favourite game to play on the beach. The boules or balls are made of metal which is hollow and are then thrown to get as close as possible to a small wooden ball, which is known as the jack. A set of boule equipment will include all that you need to play the game, including the jack and will also include a tape measure for those who want to take the game seriously or are semi-professional boule players. If you are looking for a cheap version of this game and do not want to go to the expense of metal boules, then we have plastic boules which are filled with sand and act in the same way as metal ones.
