Caulfield Park Petanque Club is a sports club based in Melbourne that focuses on the game of petanque, a French sport played with boules (steel balls) on gravel or hard sandy surfaces. The club provides a large, well-lit piste bordered by gardens and bowling rinks, making it an ideal location for playing this classic and fun game with family and friends.
Petanque is known as a sport often associated with food and wine, and many Victorian wineries have petanque playing areas where visitors can bring their boules and have a game. The rules of petanque are easy to learn, making it suitable for players of all ages and skill levels. It is also a great activity for corporate days and business team building.
The Caulfield Park Petanque Club, located at the Caulfield Park Sports Club in Balaclava Road, offers a variety of opportunities for members. They can play at other clubs, participate in fortnightly tournaments held around the state, or simply enjoy casual games without entering competitions. The club has experienced players who can teach newcomers how to play the sport and organise various activities.
In addition to regular games and tournaments, the Caulfield Park Petanque Club aims to hold social days, organised tournaments, and potentially national and international events within the precinct. The club is well-positioned to facilitate these events, with current club members including the President of Petanque Australia and the Victorian Development Officer.
