This month was great for high scoring
with two players rolling 5-point frames:
Kathy Perrine and Nick Drury, and
a rare six point frame rolled by Paul
Wiener. Congratulations to all!
The bocce club recently hosted Junior
University kids for bocce and a hot dog
lunch afterward. All participants had
a great time.
Bocce Fact of the Month:
A 5-point
frame can be achieved if all balls of one
team are closer than any of the opposing
team’s balls, each also being within 36
inches of the target (pallino) and one
of the balls actually touching (kissing)
the pallino. The very rare 6-point frame
would require that 2 balls be kissing the
pallino instead of only one.
