For new players
Pick up pétanque in a single afternoon
A free, federation-curated beginner track. Rules, the three roles, a one-minute pre-shot routine, and a structured first session — all on your phone.
What you get
Six steps that take you from never-touched-a-boule to playing your first end with confidence.
- Step 1
The 60-second rules read
The end-to-end loop: cochonnet, throwing area, scoring, fanny. No jargon, no exceptions on the first read.
- Step 2
Pointer, shooter, middle
The three roles in a triplette and how they share a turn. Pick the one that fits your first match.
- Step 3
Two technique drills
Pointing on a target line; shooting on a stationary boule. 12 minutes each, with video demos.
- Step 4
Pre-shot reset
A 60-second mental routine — breathing, anchor, commit. Lower variance under match pressure.
- Step 5
Your first match
A guided session with a club captain or solo. Score in the app — it walks you through every end.
- Step 6
Find your club
The directory of welcoming clubs in your country, with open-night slots you can book straight from the app.
