Let's Play Pétanque: Meet-Up
Centrum Park, 4955 Ariva Way, Kearny Mesa
Cost: Free
Pétanque (pay-tonk) is a "lawn bowling" style competitive sport where you try to get larger metal balls as close to a small metal ball as you can. It's simple to learn, but strategy comes in to play quickly as you can hit your opponent's balls, hit the target ball, or hit your own balls to move them closer. If throwing metals balls in the air and crashing them into one another sounds exciting, pétanque is the sport for you! It's a great alternative to bocce, croquet, and horseshoes. As exciting as the game is, it can be played by almost anyone-young, old, athletic, and not so athletic.
