The Rules of Boules
Boules. Whenever you're in France you'll likely will see a game of boules being played either in little villages or main town squares or even be asked to join in on a game of boules. It's a popular game played by old and young. I originally thought it may be preferred by the older generation but in our village, children and young adults all play in the terrain (single playing ground) behind our local Tabac or at the boulodrome when inter-commune championships are held.
In our village Breton Boules is played which is particular to our region with different rules and not with the metallic boules, but a larger resin ball. (More on Breton Boules coming in a future post).
