Bocce.Ca | Rules of Play
Calling the Shot:
For a ‘trick’ shot, the thrower of the pallino (small white ball) MUST call the shot. Example: ‘the ball must go off the obstacle (tree) or it must go over the obstacle (log).’ All the following balls must use the same route. However if the player throwing the pallino does not call the shot the following players may use any route to get their balls closest.

Turns of Play:
After the first player throws the pallino and their first ball, they step aside and his team does not roll again until the opposing team has either gotten one of its bocce balls closer to the pallino or has thrown all of its balls.
The team that scores last throws the pallino to begin the next frame.
Each player must play 2 balls each (no specified order).

Scoring:
Only the "inside" team scores.
One point is given for each ball of the inside team that is closer to the pallino than any ball of the opposing team and a 2 point bonus is given for any balls TOUCHING the pallino.
The team who is first to reach 12 points wins the game.

Measurements:
All measurements should be made from the inside dimensions of the bocce ball to the inside dimension of the pallino.
