Default Bocce classes/lessons

I have been all over the Villages recreation web page as well have scoured the weekly Thursday Villages entertainment meant/recreation insert in the Daily Sun. I found existing bocce ball leagues, but no instructional classes or sign ups for beginners to learn how to play the game. Is anyone aware of any classes and where to sign up? Thank you.

It’s a fun game having played it up north with clubs competition is taken pretty serious.
Another game similar is Pétanque can be played in yard grass or dirt the balls are metal smaller than the bocce balls.
There are videos YouTube with instructions for both bocce and Pétanque.
The Bocce courts here a similar to shuffle board

Just look up the rules and read how to play, doesn’t take much to play.

Tuesdays 5:00 at Ezell. Show up a little early and they will explain the rules and show you how to play.
