Boccia Competition

On Thursday we entered a team in the very popular Boccia festival at Kings School Sports Hall.We chose year 6 who had not yet had the opportunity to represent the school and the 5 children were thrilled and very proud to have been chosen.Mrs Barnes accompanied the children and said they were a delight to take, so well behaved and they played excellent Boccia, learning how to develop their game as the afternoon progressed.
Boccia is played sitting down aiming  the boccia ball at the jack.Turns are then taken depending who is closest to the jack.Tactics are needed in order to school points and knock the oppositions ball out the way.

Inspire+ ambassadors helped score the matches.

Games consisted of 3 legs per game.


4 of our squad- smart and proud wearing school jackets



great scoring- we were red!




We played 7 competitive matches winning 3, drawing 1 and losing 3.
We came 6th overall ( if we had won 1 more match we would have come 2nd showing just how close it was.
Fabulous work Boccia team.
