Other than that, youвЂ™ll need to have a smaller target ball that weighs significantly less. To play the game, youвЂ™ll usually need eight balls of the same size and around two pounds in weight. LetвЂ™s talk a little bit about the different colors and sizes of the balls. All balls are to be thrown underhand, and if the rest of the players decide that the pallino was thrown poorly, the first player can rethrow it. Whoever plays first should consider the perfect position of the pallino - not too far, but also not too close. That is how the location of the target ball is chosen. The winner then chooses a team member to pick up a smaller target ball (pallino) and to make the first throw. Most of the time, players come to a decision by flipping a coin. Now itвЂ™s time to decide which team is going to play first. There are usually eight balls, two of each color or pattern to choose from. Depending on what youвЂ™ve got, each team picks a color or a pattern. You can have only one person in each team, or you might want to make teams out of two or four people on each side.Д«occe balls come in different sizes and colors or material. The first thing you want to do is divide the group into two teams. LetвЂ™s assume youвЂ™ve gathered a group of people to play the game. It derives from a dialect in Provence, and it describes the position of the player before tossing the ball.

In Italian, bocce is a plural form of boccia, which came from a Latin word bottia (it literary means ball). We should take a look at the etymology of the word bocce. The game started to gain popularity on a larger scale with Italian migrants, who exported it to many different places. Thus, there are many bocce courts and clubs widely known all over the world. They all found the game extremely beneficial to their mind and body. Many admirals, poets, scientists, even emperors played the game. Just to throw some names out there - weвЂ™re talking about Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo Galilei, Hippocrates, and George Washington. How popular the game was back in the day shows the fact that some of the greatest people in history used to play it.

Bocce ball represents one of those different variants. There is a whole category of games in which you are trying to hit the target ball by throwing or rolling other heavy balls. However, we have to be a little specific about the different terms that people all over the world are using.

To be completely honest, for starters, you can just imagine bocce as bowling - just eliminate the pins. We are all rather familiar with contemporary bowling. Bocce is widely known mostly because of its simplicity and the fact that people of all ages and different skill levels can play it. You may come across the name Italian lawn bowling also, as this phrase is most commonly used outside Italy. You mightвЂ™ve even been invited to play the game, but the name only left you in awe and utter confusion. You mightвЂ™ve come across some Italians who happened to mention it once or twice.
