Players of all skill levels welcome. Our outdoor courts are located just 9 miles west of downtown Chicago, right by the Eisenhower Expressway. Please visit our website for more information.
We are a new start-up hoping to establish the game in the area. The park paths present a challenging and festive backdrop to all skill levels. We hope to have some tournaments in the future.
Fresno, California is located in the beautiful San Joaquin Valley.
Fresno has a population around 500,000. It is a one hour drive to the stunningly beautiful Yosemite National Park, Kings Canyon National Park and the Sequoia National Park.
Our Boules Club recently started with a core membership of 22 charter members. We are off to a roaring start and will soon have a web page for you to browse.
If you have plans to visit Fresno or are just passing through give us a telephone call or send us an e-mail. Our fun group of boulers would love to meet you and play a few games of petanque.
Until then...
Au Revoir,
Tim Channell

La Boule Fêlée" is a club designed to promote the French sport of pétanque in the United States to individuals of all ages. The club is located in Silver Spring, MD just minutes outside of Washington, D.C.
"La Boule Fêlée" brings pétanque into local area schools to teach students learning French in their school curriculum the fundamentals of the sport and encourage competitive play on a local, national, and international level.
In 2000, "La Boule Fêlée"'s junior members have been seriously practising pétanque to prepare for the upcoming US Youth National tournament. Still time to join us and enjoy pétanque

Courts are in Lakeway City Park. Petanque Sundays are a weekly gathering of players. Play begins at 1PM. The courts are shaded and adjacent to Hurst Harbor on Lake Travis. A gorgeous location!Tournaments are held twice a year. Players from anywhere in the USA and the world at large are welcome.Food and beverages always encouraged. Equipment (OBUT) provided.
We are trying to form an informal club on the North Shore of Nassau County, Long Island, NY. There are some excelllant Bocce courts available at many of the local parks, and we are hoping to find some local players that would like to both start a club and find others to play Petanque with.
