BOULES SET KH 4242

This Boules Set comprises 6 balls, a jack ball made
of wood, a scaled tape measure and the practical
storage bag.
Fundamentally, it can be played on any surface.
Especially suitable are ashed areas, as they are
often found in park facilities. The surface should
not be too hard, but also not too soft. Bumpiness
makes the game more interesting and also more
demanding.

Playing technique

Basicaly, there are two ways to play the balls, you
either "lay" them or "shoot" them.
With laying, you attempt to place the ball as close
as possible to the jack ball.
With shooting, you attempt to dislodge a competitor
ball away from the jack ball with an aimed throw.
Whether laying or shooting, you should pay heed
to the correct hand position. The ball is thrown with
the palm facing downwards. Through this, the ball
receives an element of backspin.
When you have mastered it, you will be able to
manipulate the ball as required for the playing
surface characteristics and the playing situation.

The Game Formations

Boules can be played in the following formations:

Tête á tête = 2 individual players each with 3 balls.
Doublette = 2 teams, each of 2 players.

Each player has 3 balls.

(a second Boules Set will be necessary).

Triplette = 2 Teams, each with 3 players.

Each player has 2 balls.

(a second Boules Set will be necessary).

Rules of the Game

The toss of a coin decides which team begins.
A player from this team then marks a circle of approx.
35 - 50 cm diameter on the playing surface.
The player then stands in the circle and throws the
jackball a distance of 6 - 10 meters.
The jack ball should have a minimum distance of
1 m from obstacles, e.g. trees, bushes, walls etc.
Following this, another member of this team tries to
place a ball as close as possible to the jack ball.

When throwing, the feet of the player must be
within the circle and maintain surface contact until
the thrown ball has landed.
Now the right to throw switches to the other team,
and remains there until such a time as one of their
balls is closer to the jack ball or all of their balls
have been played. Within the team the player
sequence can be changed at will.
Then the other team takes its turn, and so on.
The balls of the opponents can also be "shot away".
Example Team A has landed a ball very close to
the jack ball. Team B shoots this ball away and
now has the opportunity to land the next ball
closer to the jack ball than Team A.
The position of the jack ball can and may change,
due to ball contact, during the course of a game.
It must however always be visible to all players and
may not come closer than 3 meters to, or be further
than 20 meters from, the throwing circle. Should
the jack ball lay directly next to an obstacle, the
session must begin anew. The team that won the
toss starts again.
Points are ﬁ rst counted when all balls have been
played. The team with the ball closest to the jack
ball receives one point. Should it be that this team
has landed two or more balls closest to the jack
ball, they accordingly receive two or more points.
In one session only one team can score points.
Thus theoretically, in Doublette and Triplette up to
six points can be scored per session.
The team that scored in the last session moves to
the location where the jack ball had lain, marks
a new circle and a new session begins.
The winning team is the one that ﬁ rst achieves
13 points.
