Boules

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boules /bul/ is a collective name for games played with metal balls.

Two of the most played boule games are pétanque and boule lyonnaise. A very popular modern version of the sport is Extreme Boule, where the game is played in unusual and challenging terrain. The aim of the game is to get your large, heavy balls as close to the small, white 'jack'. The winner is the player whose ball is closest to the jack. It is also referred to as 'Bowls'.
