Our Boccia program provides a supportive and engaging environment where participants can build confidence, develop skills and connect with others in the community.
Boccia is a precision ball sport originally developed for athletes living with physical disabilities. It is played indoors on a flat court where players throw, roll or use ramps to place their coloured balls as close as possible to a white target ball called the jack.
The sport focuses on strategy and accuracy rather than strength or speed. Boccia is suitable for wheelchair users, ambulant players and people of varying mobility levels. This makes it a truly inclusive activity for the community.
No experience is required. All equipment is provided and coaches explain the basics so new players can join with confidence.
We are inviting expressions of interest from people who would like to be part of our Boccia sessions. This program is well suited to:

Joining our Boccia program early gives you the chance to shape something truly community-led and inclusive.
Help build the club from the ground up. We are creating a space where participants contribute ideas, support each other and grow together.
Through skill development and practice, many participants find they gain confidence both in the sport and in daily life.
Boccia helps improve coordination, focus and strategy. Whether you are fine-tuning your aim or learning team tactics, there is always room to grow.
Our sessions are social and welcoming. Participants often form meaningful friendships, enjoy group activities and feel part of something that matters.
Boccia is played in short rounds where players take turns throwing or rolling balls towards the jack. The player or team with balls closest to the jack scores points.
The game rewards precision, strategic thinking and control. It is not reliant on strength or speed. This allows participants with different abilities to enjoy the sport equally.
Games can be adapted to suit your pace. Coaches and volunteers are on hand to explain, support and help you feel confident in each session.
When you join a Boccia session, you can expect the following structure:
New participants are greeted and introduced to the basics. Coaches explain how the game works and answer any questions.
Players take part in simple drills to practise throwing, rolling or using a ramp, depending on their preference.
Participants play rounds of boccia in friendly matches. Everyone is supported at their skill level.
After games, players are encouraged to chat, exchange tips and connect with others. This time is a key part of our program’s community focus.
No matter your experience, the sessions are relaxed, encouraging and inclusive.
The Legacy Hub is open, and you’re welcome any time.
