Petanque's
popularity is steadily increasing in our country.
But players are
scattered over all 50 states and do not have many opportunities to meet,
mingle and play.
In 2009, 84 teams came from 20 states, Canada and Europe
and had a marvelous time. Many new friendships were
made. High fives and laughter went on from morning till
late at night!
It certainly helps that the marina is a beautiful
setting, with plenty cafes & restaurants within walking
distance, and lots of breeze and sunshine. Not unlike La Ciotat in the South of France, where
petanque started in
1907. |
