AoC Sport Introducing campaign: Boccia

31st January 2022

Ao C Sport Introducing Boccia

We are pleased to introduce the Boccia as part of the AoC Sport Introducing campaign with dedicated information for colleges on how to get staff and students involved.

Boccia is a target ball sport which tests both muscle control and accuracy. From a seated position, players propel balls to land as close as possible to a white marker ball, known as the Jack. Two sides compete as individuals, pairs or as a team of three over a set number of ends
