Boules / Pétanque

Pétanque is played by each and every gender and by almost all ages and abilities - AND - what’s most important, is that taking part and playing the sport is such great FUN!

We meet for two weekly sessions every Friday, (weather permitting); morning - 11.00a.m until 1.00pm; and afternoon - 1.00pm until 3.00pm, to enable players more flexibility as to when to meet. These times may be revised later in the year, when the clocks alter to “BST”. We meet in the calm of the Walronds gardens in the centre of Cullompton,

    A comedy magician. Basically, if all the tricks work that’s the magic, but if they fail spectacularly, that’s the comedy. The main aim of his show is to keep the audience laughing, and when the moments of sheer impossibility and amazement come, it hits the audience right between the eyes!
