The Bocce Shootout event is open to league players, social players, new players, Lexington Country Club members, and guests.

This is a basically social event sponsored by the Lexington Bocce Leagues at the bocce courts starting at 9:30 am with some fun one on one competition and refreshments. The event is scheduled between the completion of league play and the start of tournament play.

The Bocce Shootout procedure is as follows:

1.  Print your name on a name card and deposit it in the proper bucket (men or women).

2.  Names will be drawn out in pairs to determine who will play each other. First name drawn is Red and throws first. Second name drawn is Green and throws second.

3.  The drawn pair goes to their assigned end of court (Court #1 for men and Court #2 for women).

4.   The pallino is placed in the middle of the spock foul line at the opposite end.

5.   The Red ball player throws first.

6.   Play continues as normal until one player has the closest ball to the pallino and the other player has no more balls to throw.

7.   The winner places their name card into the next round winner’s bucket to be drawn later to compete in the next round. The loser is retired from competition.

The rounds are repeated as described above until there is a single name card in the winner’s bucket.

The winner of the Men’s Shootout plays the winner of the Women’s Shootout.
