Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 From your editor, Have a look at those trophies and dream of you and your partner making Capital Petanque history. Sign up soon. Speaking of signing up, I have set my sights on the Masters games in Adelaide as teams are forming quickly. Consider the information below on this event for your calendar and join the fun. Graham shows us how to a create a dream backyard and Seb has an amazing travel suggestion. This issue sees the last of the rules to be clarified series. Many thanks to our umpire team as I for one learned a lot and would like to carry on putting in rules that might help clear up doubt. If you have a something you would like to see explained let me know. And Belconnen was just cool! Kerry A note from Catherine and Jim about the Alexander Competition Although teams will register on the day, could you please send Catherine an email by Wednesday 20th of March at [email protected] indicating who will be in your team. For anyone who would like to play, but does not have a partner, they can also contact Catherine and she will send out an email to all members indicating those members who would like to find a partner. We plan to start the first game start promptly at 10:30am, so you will need to be at the piste at least 20 minutes before the first game starts for registration and to allow time for the first draw to be prepared. Would all teams please ensure that they have a tape measure and a scorer. Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 Capital Petanque Club First Sunday of the Month Another big turnout for March competition with Margaret bringing along two first timers who must have enjoyed the day as they returned on Tuesday with two more new players. Our friendly club game works it charm again. With the piste looking as if it has had a hot, dry summer we donned sun protection and played some simmering petanque. Congratulations to the winners of the First Sunday of the Month competition. Catherine lead the women with Dely'se in second position. For the men Seb was the winner with Patrice coming in second. See you at the next round of the First Sunday of the Month competition on April 7th. If you can think of a caption for this photo send it in. I am at a loss. Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 Playing tips Jumping Jacks The art of winning a game of Pétanque is to always make the best of a bad position. The game is full of moments where the game can twist and turn. Good luck or bad luck can fall upon you at every moment. One of the most common problems in a game is movement of the jack. When shooting a boule, the jack is usually in close proximity. One of the reasons for shooting! This is a time when anything can happen. The shooting boule is coming into the head at speed causing boule, gravel or jack to be pushed out of the head. If the jack is hit it may not go out of play. It can move two or three meters from the head. Chances are it will move away from the circle leaving a lot of boules between the circle and the jack. If there are still boules to play they will be thrown with extreme caution and care. The crowded head is now right in the way of any boule played towards the jack. This really is make or break of a game. Crashing into the boule left two to three meters from the jack will not help your situation. The length is best walked out so it is clear in your mind. The landing spot for your point must also focused upon. A lob over the pack is possibly the most productive shot or spinning your boule in from the side. This is totally dependent on the terrain and of course the boules left for each team to play. This is a shot best practised away from a game situation. It may only happen once a competition but the longer you play on the day as you reach the semi’s and finals there tends to be more shooting and more jack movements. If you do not have spare boule to use take three or four half house bricks and place them in a circle approximately one metre in diameter. This circle should be approximately 7 metres from the throwing circle. Place the jack two metres behind the circle of bricks and practice pointing to the jack. The bricks represent the old head after a jack movement. With practice you should be able to miss the bricks but point close to the jack. It is a shot you will only use a couple of times during the competition but one day this practice will reap rewards. Try different permutations to try to represent changing situations. Capital Petanque Club: Player Training Tips Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 Petanque in Belconnen A warm and sunny Saturday morning on the shores of Lake Ginninderra was the setting for petanque’s first foray north of Lake Burley Griffin. Fourteen members of Capital Petanque Club and two spectators (thanks Robbie and Dely’se) were part of this historic occasion, enjoying themselves on the shaded pistes of John Knight Park. The only obstacles being inquisitive (and acquisitive) birdlife which considered the “coche” as a potential dietary supplement. The overall impressions of the petanquers were positive. A group of locals has already decided to make playing at Lake Ginninderra a fairly regular occurrence at 10am on Saturdays. A full report on the morning will be presented to the next committee meeting, so more information to follow. Thanks to everyone who helped to make this a successful first step. David, Ivo and Gary Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 Some precaution was considered for water hazards. Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 What’s the rule? The final set of reminders and clarifications are around general play and umpiring Time between ends The one minute to throw a valid jack for the next end starts as soon as the previous end’s points have been agreed to i.e. measurements have been completed. All timing penalties are team penalties, so all members of the team get a yellow card. Boules played out of turn are deemed boules thrown contrary to the rules. Capital Petanque Club Umpire – Technically this means the boule is dead, it is removed from the piste and any changes that boule made are replaced if they are marked. If a player effecting a measure displaces the jack or one of the contested boules they lose the point. The umpire will place the jack or boule to reflect the lost point. While measuring if a player moves the jack or boules giving the point to the opponents it remains as it stands. The team losing the point must play the next boule. If a player picks up boules from the playing area his/her partner won’t be allowed to play their boules. This does not apply to boules being moved behind the dead boule line, but players should not pick up and hold boules until the end has been completed. Capital Petanque Club Umpire – By picking up your boules you are forfeiting the end, the opposition can play their remaining boules, this also stops confusion when trying to work out how many boules you are playing against. No player may absent him/herself from a game or leave the terrains of play without the authorisation of the Umpire and they must have played all their boules before asking. If the player has not returned by the moment they are to play their boules, they are cancelled at the rate of one boule per minute. Umpire only to measure during semi-final and Final (FIPJP requirement) It is strictly forbidden for players to sweep, press down, displace or crush any obstacle whatever on the playing area. For not complying with this rule, especially in sweeping in front of a boule about to be shot, the player will incur a penalty. Capital Petanque Club Umpire – Yellow card for that player. This rule was confusing for me as players regularly smooth out divets without penalty. I needed clarification so I asked our umpire Graham Smith and he was able to make it clear for me. Kerry This rule is around shooting... French players stamp down the ground in front of the boules to be shot... They want to cut that out of the game and hence the rule clarification. So, before your throw, you or your team may remove a single continual mark made by a previous boule. Before the coche is thrown and in agreement with the opposition you may remove certain obstacles from the piste e.g. a twig, a kangaroo tail print, a previous ends circle marks or deep footprints that were not cleaned up. You are not to remove any piste surface such as rocks and pebbles. Graham Boulesheet 110 8 March 2019 For the Petanque Tragics There are many at the Capital Petanque Club who could be considered tragics. Players who think nothing of playing in 45 degrees when metal boules brand Obut onto skin, or when it is snowing in the dark during winter and all life is hibernating, but none have gone as far as to turn the suburban back yard in piste..

Erstmals erwähnt wurde das Faustballspiel im Jahr 240 n. Chr. von Gordianus, Kaiser von Rom. Im Jahr 1555 schreibt Antonio Scaino die ersten Regeln für den italienischen Volkssport, das "Ballenspiel". Johann Wolfgang von Goethe schreibt in seinem Tagebuch 1786 "Italienische Reise": "Vier edle Veroneser schlugen den Ball gegen vier Vicenter; sie trieben das sonst unter sich, das ganze Jahre, etwa zwei Stunden vor Nacht". 1870 wird das Spiel in Deutschland wieder entdeckt und der Deutsche Georg Heinrich Weber verfasst 1896 das erste deutsche Regelwerk. Populär wurde das Faustballspiel unter Turnvater Jahr in Deutschland und ist bis heute noch in den Turnvereinen als Ausklangspiel verankert.

  • Nine Pins (Pdf)
    Louisa County Historical Society The traditional game of bowling A home-based lesson plan Historical Background In the third and fourth centuries, German monks introduced bowling to local people, not as a game, but as a religious practice. The German peasants believed it would tell them whether or ​ ​ not they would be pardoned from sin. When the German people attended church they brought a wooden club, called a kegel, to precipitate in bowling. The parishioner set up his own kegel as ​ ​ ​ ​ a pin. Then, they would roll a stone at the kegel and if the kegel was knocked down, the person was considered free from sin. In some parts of the United States and Europe bowling is still known as kegeling. This practice became a popular game. Early Europeans bowled with a duckpin ball, nine pins, and a wooden plank. A duckpin ball is smaller than a modern bowling ball and has no finger holes. The nine pins were also smaller and set up in a diamond pattern. Nine-pin bowling is still the most popular form of bowling in Europe and championships are held every year. Modern nine-pin bowling Photo Credit: Wikipedia Nine-pin bowling was brought to North America by British, German, and Dutch colonists. The earliest known instance of bowling in the American colonies is of Dutchmen playing a version of the game in New York in 1670. By the early 1800s, bowling halls had become popular places for people to relax and enjoy some recreation. According to folklore, ten-pin bowling came about in ​ ​ response to government officials banning nine-pin bowling in order to stop the gambling that ​ ​ was occurring at some bowling halls.
