Boccia (pronounced BOH-chuh) is a fun, precision-based game similar to bocce ball — but designed so everyone can play, regardless of physical ability or experience! This class focuses on teamwork, coordination, and strategy as players aim to roll or throw soft balls as close as possible to a target ball called the “jack.”

At the RVYMCA, Boccia is offered as an inclusive sport, meaning it’s open to all children — with or without physical, developmental, or learning differences. The game can be adapted for any participant’s needs, making it a wonderful way to promote inclusion, cooperation, and confidence.

Each week, participants will:

• Learn how to aim, throw, and strategize their moves

• Play in pairs and small teams to encourage communication and sportsmanship

• Develop focus, fine motor control, and spatial awareness

• Celebrate success in a supportive, friendly environment

No prior experience or special equipment is required — all materials are provided, and the program is led with patience and creativity to ensure every child feels successful and part of the team.
