Beach Bocce World Championship XXXIX
Enjoy an outstanding day filled with food, sun, and of course championship beach bocce ball action while raising money in support of Boys & Girls Clubs of Carlsbad’s proven after school programs. The popular annual Vigilucci's championship, which sold out within an hour, attracted a sold-out crowd of 454 teams of seasoned and first-time players who competed in 1142 games on 92 courts in 2018, raising more than $120,000 and bringing the event’s 38-year total fundraising to more than than $1.5 million. Highlighted by colorful costumes, intense competition, and a lot of laughter, this year’s event boasts just over 450 two-person teams who will vie for the title of World champion in four different divisions. Parking is available at the Del Mar Racetrack and complimentary shuttles are provided to the beach. Spectators are welcome (no charge). Major sponsors include Vigilucci’s Restaurant Group, DW Holdings, Lee & Associates, Pave-Tech, Saddle Bar, Hudson Printing, Stone Brewing, Birra Moretti and the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club.
