Therefore far that can go up the
archaeological excavations (and the Web), the set of balls is found of ancient
Egypt in Gaule. Game of bowls comes from the name " pés tanqués
" (joined feet). A rule well quickly forgotten since nowadays the major
part of the players and especially of the gunners would be to blame. Very popularized
in the south of France, this discipline is however practised everywhere in the
world. The principal tools are simple and not very expensive.
A triplette of " hollow " ball. All other produced methyl or phényl
is prohibited (and it is not only to avoid encephalopathy!).
The diameters and weights vary. A measuring instrument (meter or measuring rod
- to prick the radio antenna of the car of your father ;-), a boxwood jack if
possible. The plastic jacks are certainly pretty but only the fact of passing
to with dimensions moves it of one meter.
It is necessary for you to be patient, pleasant and good player. Admittedly that is not single with Game of bowls, but the fact of playing a whole day in good mood it is as even more sympathetic than to treat to the mugs than one can see on C+. The more so as the stake is far from being the same one.
The parts are done in 13 points except exceptions
(11). That is played at the head with head, doublette, triplette to see even
quadrette (ever tested... too dangerous; -). The first arrived at thirteen gained
the part, and that in as much of carry out that it will be necessary. The jet
of the goal is done between 6 and 10 meters for the seniors (and not with the
face of the adversary). For the doublette it y in general a pointer and a gunner
and each one made its office according to the strategy of the team game. However
you can make revolving (you play in permanent medium). Ca can divert the
opposing team but request for your share a little more concentration.
Game of bowls can be played about
on any ground, of the range to the vague ground, while passing by the carpark
of your town hall and the ground of foot of your commune. Tested however not
the swimming pool, the waterpétanque one is appreciated by not initiated
very little. Moreover this play can be also practised under any time: rain,
freezing, wind... Whereas all " sportsman " says that game of bowls
is not a sport, and I awaits it on the ground!!!
The pétanqueurs or Game of
bowls has bad reputation near the people who do not practise. The alcoholic
drink there is often associated. That for 2 essential reasons. On the one hand
tournaments lasts on average a good half-day and must preserve a certain environment
friendship to see of a certain weak machist. In addition, the means of subsistence
of a club is primarily the re-entry of money via the " refreshment bar
". Indeed the contribution of the commune is often
insufficient. The settings deposited with the inscription of a contest are completely
distributed to gaining. The receipts carried out can pay the loads of a club
as well as the expenses of referees and the inscriptions with various challenges.
That does not certainly excuse excesses which one can note.
For more precision on the rules of
Game of bowls you can higher download the imported file of the site of the FFPJP
(only in French).
From this year the French Federation
of Game of bowls laid us a new regulation on mainly the organization of the
contests which goes against what can represent Game of bowls, in any case for
95 % to the practise, i.e. a leisure. This new regulation kills the small clubs
and the motivation of the players. In order to derive towards professionalism
and can be the Olympic Games, the Federation will be the cause of the disappearance
of at least of a quarter of the clubs
of game of bowls in Yvelines this year, and certainly the disengagement of many
clubs towards the Federation, and the increase in contest wild. Indeed it would
be time that the Federation understands, that well beyond a statute in the world
of the sport, Game of bowls is first of all a discipline which is addressed
to all and all, of any age, which is essential its level, that is essential
the importance of the club... It is all that which it is necessary to encourage,
and not only media demonstrations.
It is very little probable that the Federation reconsiders their step, as I hope as the friendly contests and the other federations will propose to the " players ", of the palliatives much more representative of the spirit of Game of bowls.
