Boccia
How to play
The goal is to throw or bowl a ball so that it lands as close as possible to the target ball, known as the 'jack'. At the close of each 'end', the athlete whose ball is closest to the jack scores a point for each of their balls that finishes closer to the jack than their opponent's best ball.
Individual and pairs matches consist of four ends, with six balls per individual or pair on each end. Team events consist of six ends, also with six balls per team per end.
Boccia at the Games
Boccia was introduced to the Paralympic Games at New York 1984. Today, there are seven medal events in the programme, all of which are open to athletes of either gender.
Played by wheelchair athletes with severe cerebral palsy and related neurological disorders, the sport is a test of muscle control and accuracy, demanding extreme skill and concentration at the highest level.
Venue: ExCeL
Dates: Sunday 2 September – Saturday 8 September
Gold medals up for grabs: 7
Athletes: 104 (80 men and 24 women)
