Pétanque League (11)

The game of pétanque is a boules sport generally played outdoors on a flat surface such as gravel or sand. Players use metal boules, usually steel, weighing between 650 and 800 grams. The aim of the game is to place the balls as close as possible to a small wooden ball called a "cochonnet" or "bouchon".

The game is played in several stages:

A player throws the jack at a set distance, usually between 6 and 10 meters.

Players or teams then throw their balls, trying to place them as close as possible to the jack.

The player or team whose ball is closest to the jack scores points. They can also score extra points for each additional ball that is closer to the jack than the closest opponent's balls.

The round ends when all the balls have been thrown.

The points are counted and the next round begins again.

Play continues until a player or team reaches a certain number of points set at the start of the game, usually 13 or 15. The game of pétanque requires both precision and strategy, as well as a good sense of balance and coordination. It's often played in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere, but can also be highly competitive at professional level.

Game sequence

1. Choosing trump

The card turned up above the stock offers a suit as trump.

Each player can accept or refuse to make this suit trump.

Accept: If a player accepts, this suit becomes trump for the round.

Refuse: If all players refuse, a second phase begins in which players can propose another suit as trump.

2. Trump cards

Trump is the dominant suit for the round. Trump cards override all other suits.

The right Jack is the strongest card.

The “Left Jack” (jack of the same suit as trump) is the second-highest card.

3. Playing tricks

The player to the left of the dealer plays the first card.

Each player, in turn, must follow the suit played if possible.

If a player cannot follow, he may play a trump card or discard another card.

Points

If the trump team wins 3 or more tricks, it scores points.

3 or 4 tricks: 1 point.

5 tricks (perfect round): 2 points.

If the opposing team wins more tricks, they score 2 points (“Euchre”).

Popular variations

Solo game: One player can declare that he will play alone against the other three. If he succeeds, he scores more points.

3-player variation: Each player plays for himself.

End of game

The game ends when a team reaches a predefined score, usually 10 points.

The game is played in several stages:

A player throws the jack at a set distance, usually between 6 and 10 meters.

Players or teams then throw their balls, trying to place them as close as possible to the jack.

The player or team whose ball is closest to the jack scores points. They can also score extra points for each additional ball that is closer to the jack than the closest opponent's balls.

The round ends when all the balls have been thrown.

The points are counted and the next round begins again.

Play continues until a player or team reaches a certain number of points set at the start of the game, usually 13 or 15. The game of pétanque requires both precision and strategy, as well as a good sense of balance and coordination. It's often played in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere, but can also be highly competitive at professional level.
