A new Pétanque Group - starting Friday October 10th


The group will play at The Red Lion in Hognaston.

One of our experienced players will play for the first few weeks to help everyone to get into the swing of things.
As the pub does not charge for the use of the terrain most members usually stay on and have lunch together at the pub.

You don't need to have any boules to start with - the pub has spares to loan. In time, though, you may wish to purchase some online.

Each of our existing groups has a WhatsApp group so that members can contact each other about the weather etc.

There is a booking system for each group. We normally play with no more than 12 players to ensure that games don't last forever.

Please contact Sue Hall for further information if you are interested in joining. (see above)
