Le bocce, often referred to simply as bocce, is an Italian Bowling game that involves players taking turns to toss balls toward a smaller target ball, known as the pallino. The objective is to have your bocce balls closest to the pallino when all balls have been thrown. It can be played on various surfaces, including grass and sand, and is popular in social and competitive settings. The game emphasizes skill, strategy, and precision.
