Play indoor boule

The origin of boule

The word boule is the French word for ball, but in France and most other countries, the game is called pétanque. Boule is a sport that has existed for a long time. In ancient Egypt, stones were thrown at fixed targets. Through ancient Greece, the throwing came to the Roman Empire.

The modern form of boule originated in France and came to Sweden in the 1940s. Prince Bertil made it known to a wide audience.
