Pétanque

ASSALAMUALAIKUM

Have you ever play Pétanque before? My first time played Petanque when I was at MKIC. There is KASUKMA which is a sport competition between all MARA's college . When my senior asked in a whatssap group who want to join petanque's team, I think this is a opportunity for me to be active and be friendly with other senior since it was my first year. I'm glad to join that team because all the seniors were helpful since I was still a newbies. YES! I agreed with those who said  Petanque is a easy and even the rules are so simple! But you must remember, for me, petanque is all about psycho , this is because your mentality must be strong enough to bear without all "psycho" things. For example, when your boule not close with jack, the competitor will clapped their hand to make us mental breakdown. This is the most dangerous situation which the player may not able to throw boule anymore and need for replacement. This is what one of my senior told us during team's meeting. For those who have ambition to join this game, actually it is a best decision, besides you do not need to run for 2 km but you need to think the strategic and bond between teammates become stronger.


Here is the link for rules that need to be follow in games:
