Boccia

Boccia is a target sport played seated and indoors with soft leather balls. Players throw or use a ramp to propel a ball onto the court with the aim of getting closest to a 'jack' ball. It is designed specifically for athletes with a disability affecting locomotor function. It is played indoors on a court similar in size to a badminton court.
