PETANCA
The practice of this traditional sport requires a 15 meter long by 4 meter wide field.
Elements: metal balls with a diameter between 7.05 and 8 cm and from 650 to 800 grams weight. The “boliche” is a piece of wood between 25 and 35 mm in diameter.
Duration of game: the time required to reach 13 points.
Rules of the game: The point goes to the ball closest to the “boliche”. The opponent must keep playing until getting the point back. Each ball of the same team counts as one point if none of the balls of the opposite team is closer to the “boliche”; the points are counted at the end of each round when all the balls have been thrown. Each player can throw the ball in a different way: throwing the ball carefully trying to launch it as close as possible to the “boliche” – move known as “apuntar”-, or throwing the ball vigorously with the purpose of hitting and moving away one of the balls of the opposite team –move known as "tirar”.
Players: 1 on 1, 2 on 2 (couples) or 3 on 3 (triplets).
