Our friends were visiting from Southern Maine, so we thought that a fun game of Bocce Ball would be enjoyed by all. The rules are simple and any age can play with adult supervision. We love playing on our sprawling lawn. When neighbors see us playing they ask if they can join in! Of course, the more the merrier!

How to play Bocce Ball: Basic Rules. Bocce is played with eight large balls and one smaller target or object ball called a “pallino.” There are four balls per team and they are made of a different color or pattern to distinguish the balls of one team from those of the other team. For two-player teams, each player throws two balls. One point is given for each Bocce ball that is closer to the pallino (yellow ball) than the opposing team’s bocce balls. The pallino distance marker can be used to determine which balls are closer. The game continues until 12 points have been scored or to pre-determined points set by the players before the game starts. It’s so much fun and can be played anywhere!
