Before you buy any boules check with a coach to see the size and weight you need. Also, try out other members' boules.

If you think you may want to play in regional or national competitions* you will need competition boules
NOT Leisure /recreational boules.
​
Also, ​familiarise yourself with the Official Rules of Petanque
​
Magnetic jacks (coches)
have been approved by the FIPJP but because they are heavier than 18g
they ARE NOT allowed in competitions*.
*Note: Our club games are not regarded as competitions).
