An alternative but similar to Bocce. The game does not need a court can be played dirt, sand, gravel or grass
Pétanque is a sport that falls into the category of boules sports. In these sports, players or teams play their boules/balls towards a target ball. In pétanque the objective is to score points by having boules closer to the target than the opponent after all boules have been thrown

Any ideas … we are in north area and were excited to try a group… seasoned players

We know leagues start end of Jan for three months but we are leaving Mar 1

I often kid about there being a club at the Villages for everything. Left Handed accountants Dungeon and Dragon club.
I think African American Men Only Bocce Ball Club may just beat that.
