Boccia England

Boccia England Boccia England is the National Governing Body for the disability sport of boccia. Points are accumulated over the course of a match to find a winner.

Boccia is a disability sport where players aim to propel balls close to a target ball. Two sides compete as individuals, pairs or as a team of three over a set number of ends. A ball can be rolled, thrown or kicked. If a player is unable to throw or kick the ball, they can use a ramp. If players are unable to release the ball with their hands, they can use assistive devices – head/hand pointer.

Stay safe in the heatwave 🌡️

Boccia England would like to encourage our athletes, staff and volunteers to keep safe during the adverse weather.

We recommend all clubs to assess the risk individually ahead of any upcoming sessions. We also encourage everyone to check in on those in community that might find this heat more difficult.
