How to Play
Casual beach play:
Bocce hole rules are designed to be fun and easy to follow. If a rule doesn't work for your conditions, adjust as needed.
Who can play:
-
2-to-4 players:
- 2 Players: Single opponents (using one ball)
- 4 Players: Two teams of two (using two balls)
- We recommend ages 14+; and younger players love it too- with adult supervision.
Setup:
- Place rings flat, 10 paces apart
- Dig hole in center of each ring using provided scoops
Scoring:
1 point - ball hits ring
3 points - ball drops in hole
Gameplay:
Players alternate turns rolling/ tossing toward opposite ring
Switch sides at 10 points (ensures fairness due to varied sand conditions)
Winning:
First team to 21 points wins
Note: Two single players use one ball. Four players (2 teams of 2) use two balls.
Game tips:
- Firm sand: slow roll, like bocce (slower than you think!)
- Soft sand: toss & roll, like cornhole
- Slopes: aim higher, and let gravity pull the ball down
- Novice help: place taller backstop side up and/or step one pace closer.
