Bocce is loved by people of all ages. Competitors or teams lob a total of eight bocce balls as close as possible to a smaller white ball called the ‘pallino.’ It is estimated that the game originated in Egypt in 5200 BC. It is still played today all over the world — the second most played ball sport, behind soccer. Here are the best places to play bocce in the San Francisco Bay Area.
