Ayrshire Sports Ability

We were delighted to invite Diane Campbell from Ayrshire Sports Ability to the school yesterday to present a cheque to us for £200 which we will use to purchase a Boccia Set (similar to bowls), which will be able to be accessed by all classes. Initially, Primary 2 will be piloting this. We will also be having a demonstration visit from Gary Seymour from Active Schools.

How do you play Boccia?
Boccia can be played by individuals, pairs, or teams of three. All events are mixed gender. The aim of the game is to throw leather balls — coloured red or blue (which side uses which is determined by a coin toss) as close as they can to a white target ball, or jack.
