Every way to run a bocce event
Bocce events in Colorado are relaxed charity tournaments and leagues at parks, wineries and taprooms with courts, usually spring through fall.
Doubles
Two-player teams each throw two balls per frame, trying to land closest to the small target ball. Points scored per frame until a set total.
Singles
One player against another, each throwing several balls per frame. Closest to the target ball scores, and first to the set total wins.
Team (4-Player)
Four-player teams each throw one ball per frame, trying to land closest to the target ball. First to the set point total wins.
Round Robin
Teams are placed in pools and play every other team in their pool. Most wins, then point difference, ranks the teams.
Single Elimination
Teams are seeded into a bracket and the loser of each game is out until one champion is left.
Open / Social Play
Courts are open for anyone to play casual games, with no bracket and lots of mixing.
League
Teams play weekly matches through a season, earning points in standings that lead to a final.
Clinic, camp or lessons
An experienced player explains rules, throwing technique and strategy, then guides practice games.
Make it memorable
Fun bocce event ideas
Side contests, fundraisers and traditions that people remember as much as the results.
Pallino Kiss Challenge
Win a prize when your ball rolls up and touches the pallino. It takes a soft touch and earns a big cheer when it happens.
Backhand Only Round
Every player must throw backhand for one round. It mixes up the standings and keeps everyone laughing.
Buy a Bonus Ball
Teams buy one extra throw per match for a few dollars. It raises easy money and adds a little strategy to close games.
Silent Auction Table
Local restaurants and shops donate dinners, gift baskets and experiences for bidding. Guests browse between matches and bid all afternoon.
Little Italy Day
Decorate with checkered tablecloths and red, white and green. Teams dress the part, and the best look wins a prize at the awards.
Court Sponsor Signs
Each court carries a sponsor's sign and is called by that name all day. Every match announcement gives the sponsor another mention.
Kids Soft Ball Court
Give kids a court with lighter, softer balls and a shorter length. They play their own games while adults compete nearby.
Golden Pallino Trophy
Champions win a pallino painted gold on a small stand. Winners sign the base, and it returns each year for the next champions.
