NEWS

We have tried to have updated petanuqe-news here since 1997, but we have decided that not only is it too much work to make a good news-site or all players in all the world, but it is not very interesting for most players either. So with the exception of world-championships. etc. we will no more publish news here at petanque.org.

But - as there are a lot of sites that do publish news from their own clubs or countries we will make a mechanism for all clubs to use petanque.org as a "news front page" for their site, by enableling all to post info about the latest story on their own web-pages.

How this will work is not decided yet. It will probably work along the lines of the tournaments-database, with a listing of all the latest stories, info about where they are, and direct links to all the pages.
