Bocce Ball Is for Everyone

Kim Jacobs-Nicholson

PebbleCreek Bocce Ball Club would like to remind residents that everyone can play in our club, including any and all who may have physical restrictions. It can be a permanent or temporary restriction (just had a surgery that requires temporary use of some type of assistance). Wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, and canes are all welcome on our courts. There’s always people on the courts who are willing to help you get on and off of the courts and hand you the ball. Two of our players, Tom Snyder and Carolyn Hoeprich, were so kind to come down to the courts to show how members with a scooter and walker can take part in playing on our wonderful bocce courts (located on the Eagle’s Nest side, to the left of the clubhouse and pool).

If you haven’t tried Bocce and would like to, please contact President Tom Bose, and one of the Bocce Club board members would be happy to assist you. Bocce ball has grown immensely in the last couple of yearscan we possibly beat the membership within the Pickleball Club?
