BOCCIA CLUB
Boccia Club people of all ages and abilities the chance to take part in the totally inclusive Paralympic Sport in a safe environment with their peers, regardless of their skill level or severity or complexity of their disability.
What is Boccia?
Boccia is a game of skill and subtlety. Physical strength is not key to playing boccia; accuracy and strategy are more important. The sport of boccia requires players to work closely as a team and communicating and encouraging is key to success. Due to the mixed disability groups that play, boccia exposes players and their support networks to a range of disabilities and empowers athletes to make decisions.
Our session is suitable for …
✅ Anyone with a disability or additional support needs.
“Taking part helps Kristin have a purpose and builds her confidence and self-esteem. Kristin has started to enjoy competing again but the main thing we can see is how she looks forward to sessions, feeling as if she belongs and is valued and has feelings of self-worth. She has also made friends through the sport, and this has helped to build her social skills.”
