If they are further away outside their competitors ball they throw again. They continue to do this until they are nearer inside their competitors ball. If they fail to 'get inside' then their competitor has won. If 'get inside' then the competitor takes their turn to get inside. If at the end of the round you have 4 balls 'inside' your opponents, then you get 4 points. nnIt's that simple. nnThis is a really enjoyable game which can be played by all of the family. nnContents nn8 x 100mm regulation competition Bocce Balls. n1 x Jack pallino. n1 x Zip Canvas Carry Case.
