The object of Bocce is to get as many of your bocce (bigger, weighted balls) as close to the pallino (smaller target ball) as possible. If you are successful in getting your bocce closer to the pallino than your opponent, you are awarded points. Bocce Ball Playing Surfaces: Bocce Ball can be played on a variety of flat surfaces such as: Bocce Ball Courts, Beach Sand and Yards or Parks. A large area is needed in order to make the game more challenging. An actual Bocce Ball court measures 76 feet long and 12 feet wide. The game however is just as much fun without the court. Bocce is the third most popular game in the world behind golf and soccer. The winner of the coin toss throws the pallino. Toss is valid if the pallino passes the center line and does not touch the back wall on opposite end.If the player fails to place the pallino in valid area, the opposing team will put the pallino in play. If both players fail, the pallino returns to the original team for an additional attempt. Alternating process continues until pallino is in valid position. The team that originally tossed the pallino will play the first ball awarded.
