About Pétanque:
Originating in Southern France in the early 20th century, pétanque was invented by Provençal boules players looking for a way to play on rocky terrain. The technique of throwing the balls feet together ("pieds tanqués") gave rise to the name pétanque.
Over the years, pétanque has become a cherished pastime, played in parks, village squares, and at family gatherings. It’s a game for all ages and skill levels, bringing people together for relaxation, competition, and a taste of the French lifestyle.
